Light at the end of the tunnel..........

.....with the banners. Well, perhaps not light at the end of THIS particular tunnel, but I can definitely begin to see an end in sight! Whoooo-Hoooooo!!!!!
And that is today's work, along with some Co-Op paperwork. If I can just keep myself behind that sewing machine until vital parts begin to complain (back, hands, etc) I should be in good shape.
I cannot take any credit for this picture; it came to me in an e-mail from a friend, and where it came from before that, I don't know. But the minute I saw it I thought "Ah......for when there is a *bad-time-to-blog-day* and put it in my pending file.
It made me laugh, and hopefully will for you too!
By the way, the toes of the Jack Sparrow Socks are started (did that while waiting at the Doctor's yesterday), and I am just about ready to switch to the body color. And I got a pair of felted booties done for a friend--they just need a tie or elastic or something in that line. And I got a painting started, which in between banner sewing, may get some work today.
So I guess I have not been nonproductive.......just oddly productive in a somewhat scattered way!
Hope there is light at the end of YOUR tunnel.......heehee!!!! ;)

Great photo, at least it's not a train coming to hit you.

I want to see a pix of the Jack Sparrow's, yanno, us Pirates gotta hang together? How about the booties too?

The booties are UGLY. There is nothing to look at---strictly functional and knit out of boring brown with a single strand of grey unplyed yarn I had spun added to help shrinkage and to give extra warmth. My one friend has an appt. with a cement slab floor, and then carpet. Well, that's like ice when the weather gets cold, so told her I'd knit her some.
The Jack Sparrows, on the other hand, I will post as I want them to be FANTASTIC and it will give me motivation to do them properly.....eventhough I substituted the varigated yarn because the Kroy was on sale and *close enough*....ya know???? ;)

I saw some cool slippers made from felt on a blog the other day. It sounds like you are getting a lot done in lots of directions. Keeps you from getting bored. I've been the same lately. Still haven't gotten back to the knitting though...
