Curiously Intertwined

Friday, May 29, 2026

I've been cleaning in my studio to enable me to get in there and sew.

I found this under a stack of fabrics.

After that I was stumped as to how to repair the batting and backing

in a manner that will allow me to hand quilt the areas

that are missing their quilting due to the original damage.

I have an idea how to approach it,

but for now it will have to go in a queue

while I continue to clean up and out the studio.

I made a copy of a favorite salad

from a restaurant we sometimes go to.

It was really good

and definitely needs to be on the menu again soon.

Puffy Checks Socks update:

I promised to let you know

when I reached the straight foot section

of these socks.

The decrease section on both socks is done,

and I have am halfway to the toe section on my first sock.

It feels like real progress.

Swinging at Grandma's house

Fireball and I did some assembly today

and are now ready to provide some ice cold drinks

at our next family get together.

This is one of the two fruit boards my DIL and I collaborated on

for our Memorial Day and Indy 500 family gathering.

They were a big hit.

We went to our first farmer's market of the season

and were still there when the vendors

started breaking their booths down.
