Humpday was Exhausting

Nov 21, 2024 03:03


We brought home another load of leaves (#13) on Wednesday afternoon despite the colder temperatures and Jollyson helped me spread them and at least one other load of leaves.
We were both exhausted after dealing with all of it.
I have no idea if the weather will allow Jollyson and I to work outside Thursday afternoon or not. I have to admit it wouldn't break my heart if we couldn't work outside tomorrow. I'd love to take a truly decadent afternoon nap. I can't remember the last time I had one of those.

I also found way too much good stuff at the Goodwill when I mostly intended to only window shop:

Three beautiful and very dressy blouses. (Hopefully there will be at least one party for me to go to wearing one of them!)

Somewhere just over 4 yards of bright red woolen fabric.

A huge grab bag of knit fabrics (red, navy, pink, and two different shades of med, blue).

A 4-5 yard piece of aqua blue "calico" cotton fabric that should make something nice to wear come next summer.

A piece of "dressy" woven white and gray fabric that's made to look like wool but is actually cotton. (It may eventually wind up as an accent fabric in an outfit.)

A 1 yard piece of thin voile fabric that should make a nice scarf.

A stiff 6" wide band of fabric that looks as if it was hand-woven and intended for use as a belt (?)

A short length of fabric that should produce a nice summer top.

Two sewing patterns.
