You have figured out a way to still keep feeding the hungry without having to go into that crazy workplace !

Way to go!

I just dropped the most recent 40 at our farm stand. That makes 200 I’ve made) and translates to 200 bags of fresh food for hungry/needy neighbors.

Well done you.

?

Our local bookstore rang me and asked if I would make them some masks to sell in the shop. I said no, but I did suggest a very good sewist who is indoors probably until Xmas and might like the task.

I dyed 6 masks last night after dinner. So far so good. The water rinsed clear and there are no colored drips on the rag I put under them to dry.?

I think they look weird because you can see the flowers overdyed with blue - the green leaves are sort of a lime color but not bright. The blue flowers are sort of purple - again you have to look closely at the fabric to tell. But they are blue from a distance.?

Once i get my next shipment of elastic, I am done with this,.

?

Today i am going to mark, stabilize (sew) and cut my hemp top out and baste the seams so I can try on for adjustment.
