Hungry hungry squirrels!

Looked up soon after I got to work at the studio today and noticed a melted squirrel staring at me from the deck railing. So I gave her a left over cherry and some nuts. (pics 1-3)

A few minutes later, I had a different squirrel staring at me. So I grabbed the jar of nuts, and went back out only to watch her run away when I opened the door.

I looked down and one of the two that will eat from your hand was running right toward my feet. So I put some food on the deck for her and some on the rail for the one who ran away.

After I went back inside, the one who ran came back to enjoy what I left on the rail (pic 5).

I had a knock on the door two more times from the same squirrel who ate on the deck at my feet. She was hungry today!

Studio video tour!

I spent the day priming things for paint and then I remembered to shoot a quick video. #SewingStudioBuild

Paint!

I started cutting all the edges while Janet was away yesterday morning. When she got back after lunch, she pulled out a roller and started filling in. I'll put a pic below in the comments. #SewingStudioBuild

Time-lapse floor install (part 2)

We broke for lunch and then came back with a portal ac unit plugged in to an extention cord from the house. Can't wait until they finished hooking up all the electrical and we have the mini split cooling the room for us - it was stupid humid today! #SewingStudioBuild

In my email this morning

More on the Michael's purchase of JoAnn. "Ever-expanding" plus it went on to say they will be carrying sewing machines, notions, and thread in stores. And there was a 50% off one item coupon - let me know if any of you need that.

I'm kind of surprised I have to sign up for emails (not sure if I want to yet) considering how many companies sell email lists.

I finally finished the patchwork jeans! @SewBrooke , the elastic in the waistband suggestion worked brilliantly. I ended up taking it as close to the button/buttonholes as I could, because the waistband I originally picked had the buttons on the wrong side and I had to piece it together/the second waistband was also collapsed in from wear. I really don’t know why, I checked against all of my jeans and I did put the fly on the correct side! Anyway, it’s done, and I’ll be happy to come up with a project that takes much less time. After I clean up the leftover bits— it looks like I used 7 pairs of jeans/shorts, so I have a lot of tops and leftover leg/waistband scraps!

Citizen journalism... I ran to Michael's and this is the fabric. All of it. Great prices though.
