Trudging along....

Last night I got home and played with Benton for a while and then started in on finishing banners. I almost made it but I had a few errands to run 1)pick up my banner for repair at Ed's, 2)Get cat food/litter, 3)buy grossgrain ribbon for the banner ties. I think on the next set of banners I will finish the edges completely before I paint them. I had issues trying to even out the edges from just doing a fold over...especially on Mariyah's Then I had to sew the edges through the paint. My old kenmore handled it okay but I had to keep adjusting the tension depending on where I was at (painted versus not painted) which took me a bit to figure out. I got Ivan's all done except for a trip through the dryer and I still have to attach (by hand) the ties on Mariyah's and send it through the dryer. I think I'm going to do that first when I get home tonight.

I still have the crazy idea that I can get a dress cut out and sewn tonight and pack. We shall see. I'm hopeful.
