Day 9: More Handcrafted Goodness
Good news! We gained 5 degrees today, but I am sure we will lose that and more tomorrow. This is a great learning experience. Turns out we can do without heat in our home. It’s a little uncomfortable and it is best if you try not to move too much….cause when ya move, you can feel the cold air. Only one more day to go before the gas guy stops by! Though, they gave no indication of what time he/she will be here so who knows!
In the meantime I did handcraft a few more fabric brooches and started some bookmarks. A few of the brooches are still in progress. So, I would consider these in progress pics, but at least I did do something today *smiles* Since I joined Thing-a-Day February and the 365 Challenge, I HAVE to do SOMETHING every day!!
Here’s the pics! I am off to bed before it gets too cold to fall asleep…….
You cannot see it, but the rainbow bookmark — the clouds are scraps of eyelet. I love making these multimedia bookmarks. I did as many as I could today, but since my fingers are cold I don’t have as much control as I need to do more. They take fine fine motor skills *smiles*
p.s. I’m starting to feel well again!! Less coughing, fever reduced — hooray!!! That means after the gas guy stops by on Monday, I’ll be able to use my machines again! I love making bookmarks and handcrafting fabric brooches BUT I also miss stitching garments!!!
