Ooopsie, it's been a minute

I surely didn't mean to abandon this blog. Things have been, well, things. My apartment is leaking rain, they are doing construction on the alley behind my place, I'm not even there right now. I've been at the P's house since the beginning of the month, and will be for two more weeks.

I have done some sewing, though. I finished a baby quilt for my cousin. I crocheted some stuff for her. I'm quilting another quilt here. The machine I'm using has no needle down position, so I get a bit sweary, and the going is slow.

Cousin's stuff:

And the one I'm working on now, in my childhood bedroom, with a glamour NOT of me:

Last weekend, I gave the little niece a sewing lesson. I helped her to sew a small zipper pouch, no small feat since I know adult women who still dread zippers. M is only ten. I forgot to take a pic of that. We'll see if I can sew more with her during the two remaining weeks here.
