Baaaa.

Baaaa.

I was going to post a picture of a sheep from the new pattern in my etsy shop, but WordPress (my blog software) is being stubborn.  So, no sheep.

We had a weekend that was actually weekend-like here.  Andy cleaned the gutters, I did laundry and vaccuumed.  We played games with friends last night and I knit.  Homemade applesauce.  Bath for the dog.

I made Andy this Pumpkin Oatmeal for breakfast this morning.  Big hit.

I rescued a beautiful piece of embroidery and made it back in to a pillowcase.  I got a bag of odds and ends at the Textile Center Garage Sale this last spring, including the cut-off embroidered edge of a pillowcase. It’s all french knots and hand crocheted lace.  I have been playing with it for a month – Should I edge a skirt?  Maybe I could make a ruffled top?  What about adding it to a tote bag?  It finally dawned on me that I could just make a new pillowcase.  Why not? So I found a pretty blue floral, stitched the embroidered band back on to the edge and I have a great pillow for the guest bedroom.

Hope your weekend was full of simple pleasures, too!
