Orion likes Eggo.
morning mandolinI like upcycling. I liked it when it was just crafting. I used to make these really warm quilts from socks. I made the Neil Gaiman one for a birthday or something, ages ago. I think he still has it. Once, when visiting during an especially cold week, he told me I'd have to sleep with the cats. I had my needles, so could've sewn them all into one warm cat blanket.
But I didn't.
In that spirit, I'm making a sweater from two old ones. This is a very comfy sweater slightly too short for my lankiness. With a couple of small paint stains on the sleeve.
And this ill-fitting thing that I love because it's so very ratty and soft.
I cut the ends of ratty old sweater for cuffs.

Soosi and a movie make for good pre-show relaxation.
detail of edgingThat's as far as I got today. The rest was used for art stuff.
It's, well, technically Sunday. After midnight and we've finally loaded the last bit of art for the exhibit tomorrow. It's not so much the art---it's all the stuff that goes with. Aubrey is staying over and tomorrow we get up very early for set up.
Will be back soon with photos and to finish up the sweater.
Hope your Sunday is good.
