Sewing?

I haven't been doing much sewing the last week. Bunches of reasons why, but I finally did get to the sewing machine this morning. And that is really weird because it is Sunday, and I'm going to have to get ready for church. I've started going to the second service and that has been making a lot of changes in my life.

One reason that I wasn't sewing is that I was having a hard time figuring out how to turn the corner on Leah Day's Comic Trees. I really like this filler design, It doesn't really matter if you have a hard time with it because it isn't supposed to be perfectly formed. And I'll admit it is very fast to do as well. The corner I did turn isn't all that wonderful, but it really isn't bad either.

I kept drawing, and drawing and drawing. I watched the segment on the Craftsy class a couple of times as well. And finally I decided to just go for it this morning.

There have been a lot of things going on in my life. We are making progress with the chiropractic readjusting of both my back and my knee. The knee doesn't hurt all that much anymore, but the upper leg does because we are moving things and muscles that haven't worked for years, decades, and possibly my entire life, are being worked. And it all makes me very tired. Too tired to do much but sit in my recliner and try very hard to walk a minimum number of steps every day to keep myself in motion at least a little.

I use a pedometer. The normal number of steps start at 6000. Normal people who are pushing it try for 10,000 a day. I am trying to set a floor at 4000+ and don't always make it on a bad day.

Not sure what I'm going to be putting on the second side of that border. It was supposed to be another Leah Day pattern with a corner, but I think I'll do something else with it instead.
