Touching Bases

I've grabbed minutes throughout the week to work on the new bowl on the lathe, this is camphor.  I am on the sanding and polishing phase of this project.
I finished sewing the newly drafted top--it fits nicely except is a bit tighter than I would like in the bust area but I am going to enjoy wearing this linen top.
It has a casual feel which will work with cropped pants or a skirt.  Nice to have a success;  I sew the tank top today!
And I am still spinning for the TDF--the turq and olive roving is all spun on its bobbin and I will begin the last of the gold/white roving today.

  1. You picked olive green for a shirt?! That is so shocking! 😉 It will be lovely on you!

  2. The top turned out great! I just cleaned out my closet and it's pretty much empty. I hated everything I owned and now I have to figure out how to replace it when everything out there is ugly or not made for ladies of a certain age.

TRAGEDY

 I am not going to be around for a while; my 9 year old grandson has perished in a house fire.  We are devastated.
