It's a bullet point kinda day
- In sewing up my Renfrew I realized I was dangerously close to not having any black thread, how can that happen? Don't I buy black thread every time it's on sale?
- Naturally, I had to stop at Fabricland on the way home to resolve that.
- Two more knits found their way to the cutting board

| Black/purple poly on left, rayon/spandex on right |
- $4/m it was hard to say no
- Rayon would be pretty good for bowling, more breathable than the 100% polyester
- It's a nice poly, heavy like the first Renfrew
- I think I already have the same polyester with teal/bright blue instead of purple
- Mr. Lina thought the rayon was a very Sera-like print, funny, I thought the purple was more "me"
- Love how I'm calling it the first Renfrew when really, right now, it's the only Renfrew
- But in my mind I've already sewn 3 others
- Lady cutting my fabric gave me an unsolicitation on my Renfrew, she liked the bright colours
- She also commented that my face looked so young for someone with white hair
- It was phrased a little nicer than that sounds
- Really need to cut my hair so I don't pull it back so frequently, most of my whites are at my hairline
- I haven't cut my hair since September, it's seriously overdue
- It's a long weekend in Ontario and a few other provinces, Family Day rocks
- We're hosting Chili Night on Sunday - friends bring chili, we print out ballots, everyone votes
- People win crap (movies, books, etc) we want out of the house, I like that part
- Mr. Lina cooks our entry, this is the one hosting event all I have to do is clean.
- All I have to do is clean, that's not fun at all.
- Saturday and Monday are free of plans.
- Well, except work, yes, it's a long weekend, but I have a project due on Wednesday, it needs to be finished and I slacked last Monday (and honestly most of this week), so it's my own fault.
- TGIF
We had dinner with friends who were randomly in town last night -- yay for seeing friends on Sundays! I like your idea of giving away things, but most of my friends are trying to declutter too -- giving them my stuff would NOT go over well, ha.
ReplyDeleteI started going gray in my twenties and have major streaks in my hairline. Right now, it's blonde enough not to be noticeable but my roots are coming in big time. I spend a lot of time ignoring my hair because it's too frustrating trying to cover the gray and deal with the style. I have no idea if it makes me look younger, older or what.
I like how you know that you'll make more Renfrews -- some patterns are just like that, you know one will not be enough!
Yay for friends & drinking on Sundays! We need more long weekends.
DeleteMy first whites started arriving in my mid-twenties I suppose. My mom was dying her hair to cover white when she was 26 so I wasn't all that surprised.
Second Renfew is cut out, so if I can get my work out of the way, I'll have it done today. If not, then Wednesday. I still have a lot of maps to make.
