I have been spending an absolutely lovely weekend alternating between reading my book and working on 3 or 4 different sewing projects.
Sewing: I had to post this one for the 4th! This is a piece of vintage fabric I found last summer. It’s a nice heavy cotton (?) with a little texture in the weave and is marked “a Singer exclusive” in the selvedge. I am hoping to find a cute red belt to go with it, but my bit of red polkadotted ribbon works for now. This is the pattern. It even has pockets. :)
Reading: Percy Jackson and the Olympians. I am on book 4, I finished the 3rd yesterday. Some young friends of Andy’s convinced him to read the series and we both love them.
Star, er, Flower spangled girl!
Read PJ to 9th grade English class, must continue series for summer reading!
