Life kind of sucks right now, what with Joans mother having cancer and Joan being *extremely* stressed over it.

I have a lot of work to do to get ready for the TransPac. Oh, and yesterday we found that the leaking faucet in my bathtub has resulted in a lot of dry rot in the wall between the kitchen and the bathroom. Lots of work.

I have one more kilt to make for somebody else, and it's going well, which is good. I was going to make the w2f homage kilt next, but I've just decided that I need something simple and slow for brain therapy. I have six yards of Lindsay wool/poly, 28 inches wide, the stuff I used to make the X-skirt prototypes out of. I think I will serge one raw edge, trim off 3 inches for a waistband and hand-sew myself a six-yard casual kilt to "no-stripe". Why hand-sew a kilt which will probably only have 18 wide pleats? (the sett is 7 inches, so those six yards will not go very far)........

Therapy. I'm not in a rush on this, I'll do it when I have time. When it's done, it's done. Summer is a comin'. I'll sit when I can, and sip a dram of Aberlour or Lismore and sew up a pleat or two. Works for me.
