Oh, I had such good intentions. I planned to post this update on time on Saturday. Or at least close to on time on Sunday. But time has gotten away from me. Again!
I’ve been spending every spare moment this week sewing masks. But this post isn’t about this week. This post is about last week. And last week wasn’t so dominated by sewing. It was dominated by a crochet project I undertook for my bedroom.
I’m really happy with the way the hexagon table mat came out. I actually have a lot to say about this little mat, so I hope that I can convince myself to take a break from the sewing sometime soon and write up a post dedicated to this crochet doo-dad.
Also last week: the completion of the Handmade Film Making class I began the previous week, and the beginning of Picture Home. I’ve really been jumping into the photography projects lately. It’s probably because I am home so much now. Home is so much more inspiring to me, photo-wise, than the office is. It’s good to be here.
It’s a roundup of the microblogging I’ve done on Flickr and Instagram all week. This includes photos I shot for Project 365 and any other extra images I may have posted.

Google Home Mini Cozy (2019) A crocheted Google Home Mini cozy has the potential to muffle the sound, interfere with the microphone, and make it impossible to see the LEDs. In other words, it may cripple the device's ability to function as a smart speaker. I don't care about these things, though, and if you don't either, come and learn how to make a cozy for your own Mini.
TWiP: I've been drinking again (2016) This week I resurrected an old crochet project, experimented with ugly clay colors, and redesigned my handmades shop on a whim.
