I had 7 trick or treaters! All in one day! That's more than I've had in the last few years put together!I finally got to meet Steph's friend Brad. Steph is dressed as Ralph when he was in the SeaBees. This afternoon she brought over a gold thermal shirt and a picture of Captain Kirk, and asked me to transform the shirt into a Star Trek uniform.
I did the neckline the same way I would bind a quilt, and then did the triangular area. Steph did a freehand drawing of the badge, and I cut it out of light fabric and satin stitched it on. Steph drew the star in the middle. She got gold braid, and I slit the sleeves so I could sew the braid on, then re-stitched the seam.
Not bad, if I do say so myself!
So tonight Steph and Brad are at Jay's for a Halloween/birthday party, and we're babysitting for Whiskey. Toast isn't sure she wants anything to do with him. He's a lot more active than she is- he occasionally sits and snuggles, but has also been exploring. Miss Millie wants nothing to do with him, of course.
It felt good to do some sewing. I started cutting scrap batting into 7.5 inch squares for Heather's table runner.
And so it goes!
