I took a vacation from blogging. Did you notice? I had high and lofty intentions of posting my mundane life for awhile but it was boring even to me so I skipped it. You don't want to see me vacuuming the house and doing laundry. Do you?
I have a scattering of projects that are coming my way that you may be interested in watching. The first one is a silk shower curtain. Some people live the luxury life, eh? I will start that today.
The other projects involve two chuppot (wedding coverings) that will be made and also photographed in my back yard before being offered on Etsy for sale. The fabric for both involve large cotton runs that went bad for various embarrassing reasons I will discuss later. Even after 40 years of dyeing "stuff happens".
One more large silk sale is pending which is wonderful but will be monotonous to do. I'll tell you about that when and if it happens. Too much pre-talk about a project is anxiety producing.

You know Marjie, you can be pretty interesting, so maybe even your vacuuming would make a good blog post! Looking forward to seeing your new work. A silk shower curtain! Hmmm, I'm intrigued . . .
What a nice compliment. Let me think about that...maybe I will post the vacuuming event. Seeing as how I still haven't vacuumed yet and may not for another week or so it certainly could and will be an event. Sometimes the dog hair is so thick that I forget there is a design on the carpet.
I can see it now...
DH: Why are you reading about that woman vacuuming??
Lee: Well DH, it's so I can learn tips on how she vacuums the dog fur up!
DH: Perhaps you could actually vacuum yourself?
Lee: (rolling on the floor with laughter) yeah, right.
Perhaps it is best you didn't share the vacuuming...it would only start DH to thinking that fur balls about the size of tumbleweeds should not be rolling thorugh the livingroom...
Can hardly wait to see the new stuff.
Lee
Tumbleweeds. Indeed. Small child size here.
We went to a friend's house last night and my sinuses opened up right away. She has a major air filter going at all times and has a spotless house. I mean- squeeky clean when you sit down and when we were riding home, all I said to daughter and DH was- "my sinues opened up" and both of them said in kindly terms- "I think she vacuums a lot". Maybe today. Maybe.
For sure I will blog about it.
