We got another hole in the denim couch.
Again, a reminder:
Denim wears out whether the ass is inside or outside of the pants.
I patched the last hole with a denim square that I embroidered for the meandering stitched quilt:
But now I've used all those in the quilt plus I'm not very good at doing things twice - attention span issues - so this time I just darned the hole with embroidery thread.
I had a great time with it and may add some more stitches.
I was inspired by this person, though her patching is much tidier than mine.
I had to re-learn AGAIN, that just because I come up with an idea, doesn't make it automatically happen. I have to actually DO something. So inconvenient.
So, I finally started stitching together the latest quilt. It's become my original Upstairs, Downstairs series quilt. Do you ever do that? Associate a project with whatever you're listening to or watching while you work on it? I do it every time.
Long term projects can be confusing because I'll listen to or watch so many things that this quilt might end up as the:
It's that spice of life thing again. A reoccurring theme in my life for sure.
I won't be updating the blog as much as I'd like because my laptop died. I have to go to work, upload my pictures, email them to myself, wait my turn for the desktop computer (I have two kids so it's a long wait) and then I can get every computer related thing done that's waiting for me to do.
I'll aim for once a week but no promises.
I still think that couch cover is incredible! It makes it even more wonderful that it can be so easily repaired! Darning wouldn't quite do the trick on most sofas! :-D
