I've made some progress on Fabulous Women In History (counted cross stitch), and I'm getting the hang of stitching on linen again.
I finally cut my hair! It's still long enough to put in a ponytail (just). It looks much tidier and is significantly less annoying to take care of. Yes, I used the fabric scissors. They're MY fabric scissors so no one has to kill anyone.
Another accomplishment - can't remember if I mentioned this one already - a few weeks ago I yeeted SIX BAGS OF OLD STUFF to Goodwill, plus 3 or 4 actual bags. I've started another box of stuff to donate. I'm creating space!
I've been insanely stressed at work. Our team is finally staffed up and we have some folks who are good at process and interested in moving future projects forward. BUT FIRST, THE TURMOIL. I think I need some support in not feeling bad when things go to shit that aren't my fault.
Honestly I could also use some support in my stalled sewing project. Anyone know how to install a V-neckband when making a shirt with a stretch knit, for the spatially hopeless? Want to try and explain it to me? (Complaints about the pattern instructions available on request.)
