When you have a few hours to yourself in a busy week the computer isn't the best place to spend that time, but I had a couple of things to look up this afternoon. Mudcat in general is pretty quiet this week, so that people being busy doing other things seems to be the norm.

My friend who is staying has been looking for some real cloth handkerchiefs to keep in her pocket to dab her nose. I have some linen that is the right weight so if I can find it I will get out the old White Rotary 1941 machine with all of its wonderful hemming feet and other fancy attachments and do a rolled edge hem on at least a couple of hankies, then I can do some fancy stitching for initials with the new machine. It may have a rolled hem foot, I'll look, but I have used the old one so often over the years it's the best technology for this job.

It's a super bright cold day again, that seems as close to winter as we will get this year.
