[silvercat17]

Man this week went by fast.

What are you up to? What did you get done? How are you feeling?

I'm trying to finally finish up my hat - I just have to top decoration to do. Then it's on to leather work!

I'm also doing laundry and Mom is going to need me to try on my Dickens' Fest pants a bunch of times.

[silvercat17]

Ugh, just *pinning* the design on the top of the hat is taking forever...

[kellan_the_tabby]

I leave for Estrella on Friday.

Today & tomorrow are the last two days it looks like the weather's gonna be anything like decent.

The roof of the tinker's wagon is done, though, & I have covers up over two of the windows, & the only big thing left is the other door.

I can do this.

[silvercat17]

You can do it! One step at a time

[kellan_the_tabby]

Got the other long wall touched up, put a bunch more staples in to hold down the roof canvas, & did a bit more work on the proto-window shutters. Tomorrow, the door!

[roselightfairy]

You can TOTALLY do it and that's so exciting!

[kellan_the_tabby]

I have the doorframe done, & the door is cut out (not a trivial task; this is the arched door!). I'm taking a break, & then it's time to make sure the door fits, putting on the hinges, putting it in place, & getting the doorknob done. I'm not even painting it before Estrella, people can cope.

[kellan_the_tabby]

Baking Camembert with a drizzle of honey makes it gooey and warm and, reportedly, extra delicious.

Parchment paper, when too close to the heating element, catches fire.


I think firelight is going to end up nine chapters? (with the last scene currently labeled as ch 7 moving to be the first of ch 8, and then the place I originally envisioned the final chapter break can be where I thought it was going to be in the first place, without having any almost-10K chapters.) in which case I'm not yet to the final chapter after all, but I'm working on it! and I thought of a couple minor edits last night but naturally they evaporated when I got out of bed.

[silvercat17]

Ugh, I hate when thoughts disappear

[angelofthenorth]

I started to draft a story for the first time in I don't know how long!

[silvercat17]

Yay!

[roselightfairy]

Congratulations! That sweet feeling of breaking out of block, even just a little!

I've got several things in the works:

* My Gansey sweater - about two-thirds of the back done
* About half done with a crocheted beret. Pattern is Phannie
* About four hours into Lionberry. My yarn is variegated and I'm not sure it's a good choice for this pattern, hmm. It was hard to find a pattern for this one odd skein I had, and this shawl used less yardage than the skein.

Also, does programming count here? I'm learning Python, and to practice my skill I'm building two games: a Space Invaders clone, and an implementation of the Klondike card game.

[silvercat17]

Go you!

Programming absolutely counts

I have been spinning more. I started a new bunch of roving on the spindle & am doing it with longer color repeats.

A person I've been collaborating with for awhile and I were randomly brainstorming thoughts and ideas... and suddenly came up with two OCs in a universe TOTALLY unrelated to our current project, but so wonderful and delightful that I've been spiraling and either writing or thinking them all day. It's mostly just an us project, but it's so fun! :D

[kellan_the_tabby]

Ooh, fun!

I'm tired of my cat attacking my afghan, so I'm pausing the crocheting to weave in the edges where I switched colors.

It's very difficult to crochet when you have a cat who thinks any dangling string is Her Personal Toy. She has her own yarn, but mine is more interesting because it moves.
