You can count the new additions to my Garden to see how many quiet sit down days I had last week. Four. Bathroom painting, migraines, yard work and a sick Pup (she's fine now) ate up all my time.

Bagged
The new Connecting Threads catalog came out last week and I was sorely tempted to buy more material to make some simple project bags but then I remembered I still had this sitting there giving me the side eye in the sewing room.

You Can't Always Get What You Want
I was really excited about getting tile for the bathroom. With all that white, I thought something with some character would be in order. Didn't happen.

Friday Fluff
Buoyed by inspiration from the MDSW, the fluff corner saw a bit of action this week. I'd forgotten about the hat I started last winter. I'll have it finished soon.
...my TdF fluff from 2023. It's BFL in a colorway I dyed called Barbie's Dream House. I wish I knew where that BFL came from. I'll have to investigate. I've never crocheted with my handspun before and it's...interesting. It's a bit splitty. If I ever spin for crochet again I'll have to be fierce with the plying.

Auxiliary Check In
My auxiliary projects haven't had much love this week. Wolf Pup has had the most seeing that I had to thread the reed three times in order to get it right. In my defense, we are now canopy covered which means I get very little sunlight until those leaves fall again. I can't see a thing in here. I did buy myself a floor lamp with natural light hence all the re-doing from finally being able to see my mistakes.
Spiral Chicken says hi. I did get another corner done. I admit to being fired up again when I saw the table of projects the rug hooking guild were working on at the MDSW.
In case you are wondering what color the room will be, it's the third one down. We call it "drywall gray" but it's real name is Bunny Gray. The entire rest of the house is painted the top one, Distant Gray but we thought with the new white shower and white cabinetry we better go a bit darker. Every home magazine declares gray interiors over but we still like it. It goes really well with clutter.

Wednesday WIPs
Thanks to sitting in traffic coming and going from the MDSW on Saturday I got a big chunk of work done on the Static twins. The more I get done on these, the more I dislike them. What's with that big speckly section in the middle? It's an ugh, for sure.
