Back Sewing!

Basement renovations started at the beginning of March, and now that normal activities are on COVID-19 hold, we decided to make the basement liveable. The new walls are up and some of the electric is done.


This is the start of my new sewing room! I am not unpacking everything, because there is still lots that needs to be done. I am so happy to have somewhere to sew again!


So far I sewed the first six blocks of a new mystery sew-along from Temecula Quilt Company, called Stay at Home Sampler (I think it is just on Instagram - link, and Facebook). These are 3" blocks, and the sew-along is for the month of April.


I made a new anti-predation collar cover for the cat.


She looks like she is ready for Halloween. I think I will make her a pink one next - it is very muddy outside and it is good to have a few collar covers. The bright collar covers seem to stop her catching birds, and she still catches plenty of rodents.


I also made a few masks (something I never thought I would have to make). The pattern is the Olson mask. It was very easy to make.

We've seen a few different tracks around-
 Maybe skunk,
and Canada Goose (these ones are surprisingly big).
Going for a walk.

Today we had an assortment of weather - wind, rain, ice pellets, snow, sunshine, dark clouds... 
 The sky was amazing, and changed so fast. 
 By the end of the day we ended up with snow that stuck.

All the best!♥︎
