The GF graham-style animal crackers are back

Yesterday I finished underlining all the flannel pieces, and learned that
for this particular combo the flannel likes to be on the bottom as it goes
through the machine. Weird but fine. I cut out canvas to support the
waistband, stitched it in place, trimmed it back, and started sewing on
hooks. I decided on a 2cm spacing, which is closer than most modern
patterns would have you do, but about right for the 1890s when fan-tail
skirts were all the rage.

After lunch P went off to do errands and I cleaned the blue room, vacuumed,
flipped the bedding, and put in laundry. The vacuum cleaner is starting to
have trouble sealing its valves, and while tinkering with it I noticed a
sign saying you should clean the filter every six months, which we
definitely haven’t done. So I did that. It was pretty grody, as one might
expect.

Dinner, crossword (PR!), sleep.
