No work was accomplished today because it was the 2008 Sock Mending Party —
2 coats
1 sock creature
several pairs of pants
and many, many socks were repaired.
In addition, a white coat arrived, well, white, and left with green circles on it; some embroidery was completed; and a quilt was on its way to being finished.
Chicken hat had a great time, as did the rest of us.
The cello was brought out and we had live music as we mended.
What a great way to start 2008! And now I'm off to laze around and read.
thanks for hosting, shu-ju! the serger is awesome. i now have many more pairs of socks & pants and now (thanks to sven) toby is able to leap about without fear of losing his stuffing!
ReplyDeletei hope we get to do it again next year! laura's coat inspired me. :)
Best sock mending party ever.
ReplyDeleteooo . . . pictures of laura's coat?
ReplyDeleteThis may very well have to be a new years tradition. I'll see if Laura will send a photo of the now famous coat.
ReplyDeleteOK, see this entry for a picture of the coat!
ReplyDeleteEvery time I put, say, my wallet in my coat pocket and it stays there, I give thanks to you for the 2008 mending party, my only regret being that I didn't eat more smashed fish.
ReplyDeleteRegret no more! I still have more of the smashed fish, which I'd be happy to deliver to you!
