Saw a rabbit in the yard
Jun. 22nd, 2017 10:27 amYesterday I sewed a muslin for the shorts, and found the waist too big,
tight across the quads, and tons of extra fabric at the back leg. I've
redrawn the side seams, inseams and crotch curves for the main pattern
pieces; the waistband is next and then we'll see how much I can fix on the
muslin without having to unpick too many seams. Doing adjustments on a
pattern with seam allowances is a huge pain.
P brought garlic, lettuce, beet greens and lemon thyme back from the
garden. The garlic is hilariously out on the clothesline. The thyme went
into the dehydrator along with the day's dye flowers (hollyhock, marigold,
and coreopsis).
M's surgery seems to have gone well though they've extended her sling time
from 5 to 6 weeks because they did some surprise extra repairs while they
were in there. So glad she decided to do it now instead of waiting until
after we visit; that would have been very tight!
