There’s plenty of Corona beer close to the empty toilet paper shelves here! I’m up for the challenge and look forward to making some things over the next few weeks. Thanks for the inspiration!
My husband and son got their essentials - magic cards and the like. They asked what I was going to get and I’m “uh, my craft closet is packed - I’m all set.”
And decided that this would be a great time to actually take the three monstrous tubs of fabric scrap and iron and organise and actually trim to a uniform sizes. And I realise that I will need to be socially isolated for eleventy million years to get thru all the scrap.
I love these. I haven’t quite mastered using this forum so forgive me if this is a duplicate comment.

Your shawl is so lovely! I will look into that pattern…It looks similar to the Mimosa shawl that I am doing but the solid breaks make this much more appealing to me…
I’m definitely going to be crafting-along! But, I’m not committing to a specific list. But, in general, I’ll be tackling some of my many WIPs, working on prompts for the Nerd Games, trying out something for the Paper & Mixed Media Craftalong, and tackling the continuation of my rubber stamp organizing project.
I am currently making some progress on my Granny Rectangle afghan. While I’m missing one of the colors that I started with (I probably pulled it out of the bag to use in another project… and I haven’t located it), it’s not worth venturing out for.
In non-craft things, I also need to work on digging myself out from a mountain of grading for school and cleaning/organizing my house. I made a dent in the latter yesterday. And, hopefully, now that I’m home, I’ll be able to keep things organized (I have the tendency to put things down for “later” and then I don’t pick them up again).
And, for everyone who is feeling the huge amount of stress that comes with a mandated stretch of not working, I hope that there will be some sort of plan put in place to help ease that strain. In the meantime, virtual hugs to you all!
I made my curried lentil and veggie stew as I planned. Yum!
I also made a small crocheted basket, about 5" in diameter, from t-shirt thread. I needed somewhere to throw odds and ends from my pockets at the end of the work day.

I’m in. It’s all I have right now, the making. (Like I still have family and all that, but I’m sure you all understand what I mean)
My goals:
Batts… many many batts until I run out of fibre (That’s gonna be a while)
Felted foam chunks… This’ll be a learning thing. I did something insane and bought a rediculous bag of foam off cuts that I plan on covering in felt)
Spin all the yarn
Keep stitching my series of Boreal Forest inspired landscapes.
Deep breaths folks. Love and light. Thanks for being a place I can come to feel safe.
