etienettebluetFriday I sewed up the first of some canvas bags, planning the best use of some canvas scrap.
Saturday a group of us went to Sash's to do a thorough house-cleaning. He's been dealing with medical issues and treatments over a year now with the accompanying lack of energy. Cat approached a few of the core group recently and seven of us were there to get-er-done while Shelly took him to lunch and, on his request, to shop for paint for his Christmas Lights project.
Sunday I went over to Volkmar's in the afternoon to draft a gambeson pattern for Carol, a new young fighter. They were working on her armor there that afternoon. That evening at home I sewed up several pairs of canvas bags to be used for weights for the Great Machine. They'll be filled on site with stones, gravel, sand, or dirt to be the weights and can be dumped on site thus avoiding additional travel weight.
Monday and Tuesday during the day I continued some sorting in my bedroom. This time I succeeded in thinning out some stuff I won't ever use and filled a black bag to go to Salvation Army. These evenings at the sewing table I frippered two green linen shifts for a project for a friend.
Wednesday I spent the afternoon 'out and about' before going to the social moot and supper. Back at home at the sewing table I finished converting the two green shifts to a functional tunic. It actually turned out somewhat better than I expected.
