Day 11, mask making and more knitting

Happy Blogmas

I am so wanting some colder temperatures

These 70’s in the middle of December seems so wrong.

Well today I spent sewing on some new face masks for my youngest daughter and myself.

My daughter works at an animal diagnostic lab for the State/federal government. They wore masks before Covid so it’s not a change for her. I made ones this time in Christmas fabric. Been meaning to get these finished last week but I’m a little behind schedule.

I had made her 3 others a couple weeks ago.

These are the ones I made for myself

I like this pattern out of the other ones I’ve tried. Fit’s without slipping down and room to speak and breathe easily.

Just realize how this could pass as a mug shot……LOL

They are comfortable. I found it on YouTube, I think the channel was called Japanese Sewing Book, free pattern for a 3D masks.

Seeing how the virus is still around, I wear one indoor around crowds. I am due for my booster soon but I believe in being careful.

Here is todays mini and now I think this my favorite

Would make a beautiful sweater.

I said I would show you a picture of our new Subaru.

Big Blue.

The Ascent is the biggest sized model they have and in order to get “the man of the place” to ride in the car and not his truck had to get one he felt comfortable in. He always said the Forester was too small for his long body. And it is smaller.

Look forward to some road trips in the future.

Till tomorrow

Kat.

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section 2 - 1' section Cut the 1" PVC into 4 - 1' section ...

It's for the Birds

WHOO - WHOO It's my day for 'It's for the birds" blog hop. Before I start I need to give thanks to our cheerleaders and If it wasn't for all their hard work this hop would not of happen. Thank you ladies Now for what you stopped by for. I have a lot of bird related patterns, especially ones that are chickens This quilt I made last year from a pattern in Quiltmania.
