Sunday Soundings

My weekend was not as productive as I had hoped it would be. I did not get home from PA until 1:30 am Saturday morning (was scheduled to land at 10:30 pm Friday night). However, on the plus, side I was able to see my mom during my 3 hour layover. Now I'm back in PA posting from my hotel room. I left home at 2:15 this afternoon - 398 miles, 7.75 hours and only 1 wrong turn later and I am back in a hotel room. It's crazy, I know, but I was bumbed that, while being out of town, I won't be able to do any sewing. So, I decided to take up a knitting project (more on that later (maybe)) to do in the hotel room after work, exercise, etc.

I've gotten a wee bit of sewing done in the last week or so. I made July's blocks for a swap I am in. Each block is from fabric on hand. I am still not getting the points perfect but there are getting better.

Saturday I wiped up a superhero cape for our soon-to-be 3 years old nephew. My husband drew out the letter and I made the cape up w/ fabric and notions from my stash. I am not completely happy with the stitching on the circle but, generally speaking, I am pleased with the overall result.
