Thursday? Yes. It Is Thursday.

No pictures of cute babies today.

I spent the day at home.

Alone.

I needed that.

Although, I could still hear the happy chatter of children in my memory.

I made a blanket for Kado out of some lovely thrifted flannel. Thrifted batting. Thrifted binding.

It still requires some hand sewing on the corner binding.

And, I may need to tie it. Or add embroidery.

Then, since I was in my sewing room, I sewed a worn pair of THGGM's shorts into a bag of sorts.

There were a few worn spots, so he could no longer wear them, but they were made from the nicest patchwork fabric. I just could not throw it away!

So, I now have a bag with four pockets, two unattached matching small bags and three fabric covered buttons!

It's quite possible that I will never ever do anything at all with this bag, but it was fun to make.

Sewing the binding on a blanket? Not so much.

Next time I donate plasma, I'm hoping to make a stop at the fabric store across the street and purchase some "Dick and Jane" fabric.

I feel the need for nostalgia.

It seems that the days that I am home alone just fly by.

I got up, had two mugs of coffee, did some reading and it was time for lunch.

After lunch I did laundry and sewed.

While I was carrying my clean laundry and newly made baby blanket up the steps, I noticed a man napping on the couch in my breeze way!

I nearly jumped out of my skin.

It was only THGGM, home from work.

I could not believe it was already time for him to be home.

Not a bad day, but I did miss "I DO IT" and "YOU DO IT" very much.
