On Friday I made the last skirt I had cut out and ready to go. I like it because it's neutral and not really patterened so it'll go with just about anything.
On Saturday I went diving, two dives, up at the end of Door County. It was a gorgeous day. Gorgeous! The sun shone, the water was warm (mostly) and the company was genial. Days like that remind me why I stay in shape and haul all that heavy gear up and down the basement stairs. I had a blast.
Yesterday I finished the bag I'd started at last weekend's Sew-in at Skully's house,
and turned 3 t-shirts from crew necks into v-necks. Thanks for the tip, DD!
But first I zoomed over to Mom's in the morning to do a few chores for her before her afternoon bridge party--delivered watermelon, filled bird feeders, unearthed wine glasses in the garage, and looked for rick rack in the doll room. I did see this chicken pitcher in her cabinet, w
hen I admired it she told me to take it. I love the dopey look on her face!
Then I dropped a bag of shirts I'd culled out of my overstuffed closet at Goodwill, after that I went to Jo-Ann's to spend the 2 expiring coupons I had in my purse. I found more rick rack (I have a secret project I need it for--shhhh),
a bunch of remnants,
some yardage for a skirt and other as yet undecided uses,
and this. I absolutely adore the panicked look on her face. She was only 39 cents but I couldn't leave her behind. I usually only buy fish stuff, in fact I bought two fish fridge magnets too, but this chicken... well, I'm calling her Penny after my one grand-chicken who is the bigger of the two but also the biggest scaredy cat.

I'm glad that worked! I'd love to see some finished v-neck pictures. Love you!
