Jeans Mama, 1
First there was the hole in the knee of the jeans to patch.Then the fabrics volunteered enthusiastically.
No idea how this will turn out, as usual. Yeah, yeah, I know I'm not supposed to be starting anything new. I'll get back to the Pomegranate Tree tonight. This is just a short vacation, a small adventure...

Recycling T-shirts
The humble t-shirt is such a common article of clothing, but, what happens when it begins to wear? The dumpster? Landfill? I recycle men's t-shirts into very comfortable PJs. Just sew the two bottom edges together and cut off the neck, and arms at one end. In Tunisia's warm climate, I'm not looking for elegance, but comfortable cotton...Saturday, September 26, 2015

Possibly a Finish

Zooming Along, 2
Almost a finish: my rather old and rather drab bag (began here) now sings to me with its new wild appliqué.
I'll finish this side within a week's time--very fast for me. Now there's the other side...and then some stitching.

Zooming Along
The appliqué is temporarily finished. I'm rather liking the circular movement in blue on the right. Pure hazard.
I'll add a bit more to balance the design. Then on to stitching. So many possibilities for stitching.

Galloping Along
Galloping along, or at least that's what it feels like. The 100+ temperatures are normal for mid-August and a good excuse to move only the fingers while glued to the AC.
I just love this bag for the memories of traveling and for its usefulness. I'm liking it even more with the appliqué.

Rethinking My Bag, 2

Rethinking My Bag
It went traveling with me this summer after I had added a zipper to the top. And it was perfect: light, useful, easy to sling over the shoulder.
However, I've always thought that it was sort of blah. The colors are a bit too subtle for me. And then I noticed a small hole...
Ok, ok, I know--I'm not supposed to be starting anything new, but, I just wanted to play a bit.
Now, I'm jazzed!

Another Sirocco and Still Inching Along

Inching Along in a Sirocco
A Sirocco blew in (hot desert wind) from the South. If only my fingers have to move, I'm good. Inching along, as usual...
I might manage to finish this part if I have to remain glued to the A/C.

Soaring Temperatures
I've been thinking that I may never wear this (pretty wild, after all), however, it is becoming something else...an idea is taking over.

Plugged In Again
It's like anything else: it's good to be unplugged if you choose.
In any case, I laid out more fabrics on my tunic to balance out the design. What ever made me think I was close to the end?
