It's been a while since I posted - I've been working from home since March 20th, and the days have blended together. I'm finding it hard to make a firm separation between work and personal life, so the craft room redo has been very slow going.
It is painted now!

You can see my little "office" in the corner. |

These pictures were taken when the room first got loaded - can you believe most of this stuff was pack in an 11' x 12' room! I'm not sure how I did it. I have made progress since then, but not enough to take new pictures yet. Besides work, painting and sorting/purging, I did a bunch of other things! I carved out a corner to make masks for family and friends. I was asked to make some to sell, but I didn't want to go into production for profit, so kept it small.  I made about 30 masks and continue to make a few at a time as I hear from someone who needs one.
I've managed to learn how to do Zoom calls and meetings! I also did some scrapbooking and held virtual workshops with Zoom. Here I'm toasting my brother and sister - showing off my new mask! |
My 11-year-old grandson helped design and piece it, and now we are waiting (im)patiently for it to come back from the long-armer. I'll share more about this quilt in another post this weekend.
I also started another one with the leftovers (well, technically, made a lap quilt) but I want it bigger so I'm hoping to finish that one this weekend.
So that is what I have been up to the last almost-90 days - besides braving the Costco lines a couple of times and getting cheap gas!
Trust me - I've only gone twice and wore my mask, unlike so many others! I choose to wear it to protect not only myself, but others like my grandson who has Type 1 diabetes, and my elderly neighbours.
Almost half of what it was at the beginning of the year.
Love the science quilt! Hopefully it's back from the long armer and you've got it all finished.
