My slippers are done.

Now I am working on a kitchen towel to hang from the oven.

It’s Successful Saturday!  Have you started or finished a project or achieved a goal?  Share it with us and we’ll celebrate with you.

 

I successfully sewed buttons on the sweater I’m making, then made buttonholes, and everything matches up and looks good when I try on the sweater!  Wahoo!  I was worried the holes would be the wrong size, or not match up with the buttons, but I got it right first try.  Sheew.

 

I also sent off the throw I was commissioned to make, and my friend got it and loves it.  She paid me for it, as we’d agreed.  Being paid for making something is something of a novel experience for me.  

My friend is blind, and works part-time assessing the accessibility of plays at a theater which is very cold.  She’ll use the throw to keep warm, and point out to people that it was created by a blind person.  I think that’s cool.  (But not cold).
