New Page Design
I had to change my page design to a different template. I liked the other template, but apparently the HTML wasn't written in an organized manner. I tried to put a particular widget on the page and failed (even though I read the Blogger instructions)! So then I asked T. to do it, since he does have an M.S. in computer science. He spent an hour and a half and wasn't successful either. He felt that the desired widget wasn't compatible with the HTML style of that template. So, I changed the template, checking first that the HTML seemed tidy and was T. approved. :) I like it; I just hope it's not too busy. I haven't put the widget on yet, but hopefully it will follow soon.
In the meantime, here are some photos of T.'s other (non-farmhouse) grandmother's sewing notebook. She had her samples beautifully organized. I found this and claimed it when we cleaned out her attic last year.
In other news, I have worked a bit on my sewing project. The shoulders and sides are now sewn together. I'm thinking of doing bound seams to make the insides a bit cleaner. That would be a first for me.
I couldn't work on it at all today because there wasn't enough natural light. It was a somber day and we don't have enough artificial light in the room to make up for it. Hopefully tomorrow will be a bit brighter. But I was able to work on my knitting. There's only three inches left to do on the sleeves!

Whoops! I cut off the 'e' - it should say Couture. |

I should have scanned this, but I only thought about that after the fact. I can still do it, later. |
Fancy work! |

Don't you think I need a dress form? |
