Crafty Day

 August 15th

Some happy things from today:

This morning Bel and I went to the house I rent out to look for some things in the shed.  I thought we would find an archery target there, but we did not.  We didn't completely empty the shed, it could still be there, but I'm not going to hold my breath for it.  We did find many other things, including lots of evidence of rodents.  But also some things that we brought back home.  About half of the things we brought home were either put away in the shed (yard tools) or will be cleaned up to use.  The other half is either trash or things I plan to give away or sell.  There were a few books that I said goodbye to because of the mice.  However, yay downsizing! 

My messy shed.

Still messy, but less stuff in it.

This afternoon I met with my friend Amy at the studio.  We talked and crafted, went to get dinner, then crafted at the Craft Night for a while.  I worked on the whip cording I started a while ago, tried doing a fingerloop braid, and started work on a favor for the Baroness.  

This is the whipcord.  I think it added about 18 inches or so to it.

The left side is where I messed up.
I like the way this fingerloop braid started though. 

Favor started.

The place Amy and I got our food at serves only vegan dishes.  I got Mac and cheese and it was really good.  Amy got a chicken sandwich that she said she liked.  Everything was vegan.  The place also has live music and entertainment sometimes.
