Lately, since there is time to look more carefully, there have been some odd creatures seen. (Not a snake this time!)
Hike and Bike walk |
Subdivision walk |
The one on the left was scootching along in the gutter in the subdivision. It was about 5 inches long. (Appx. 13 cm. for my metric zone readers.) It had rained a day or so before, at least an inch and maybe two. Possibly the critter's home was inundated.
The one on the right was at the Hike and Bike trail,crossing the path. It was about an inch and a half long.
Other than saying "lots and lots of legs" I am not sure what they are.
Progress report on the mason bee nest: the mud plug is still in place, the babies are obviously too young to have hatched, eaten their food, pupated, and come out. We just check in on it and keep from putting our drink glass on top of it!
Re: beading, nothing at the moment.
Re: sewing, hemming some napkins for the practice of it, thinking of making some purificators afterwards. The mitered corners and quarter inch hems of the one help to prepare the muscles for the other, is my thought.
Re: quilting, my homework for the Kimberbell Jingle All The Way quilt class is pretty much caught up. The "bonus" small chenille tree is still sitting here and might end up framed in a small oval or rectangular frame to be a Christmas decoration on its own. (This would give an opportunity to add beads to it, always a plus!)
Stash report: still a lot of it. But the napkins are using up some black linen. Some of the blue linen got turned into the last set of coasters, but there is more in the house I think. A bit of the leftover blue satin got turned into a pouch for an eyeglasses wiping cloth, that could be a gift idea for this winter.
