caution: mommy at work

First Friday is coming up, so I took advantage of a little time alone this afternoon to do some sewing. My big seller last time was headbands, so I decided to restock those.

First off - tunes. I have to listen to Mortal while Lydia is gone, or she says snide things like "Is it… music??" Pfft. What do 4 year olds know about music? Might switch to watching Lord of the Rings in a bit, though, because this blog post got me to thinking of it….

I am often amused by the incongruous conglomeration of items that finds its way to my sewing table. There's the usual pins, scissors, measuring implements… and of course coffee… and glue… and a lantern, because it's storming outside and if the power goes out it's black as pitch in the basement… yeah, I need to tidy up a bit.

Tubes that will soon be headbands - I slide my wooden yardstick through them to press the seams… because I walk on the wild side.

And a pile of headbands ready to be pressed and put in the basket.

Okay, that's enough of a break. Back at it!
