I finished the jacket for Tabula Rasa last night and I have to say DAMN! it looks cute. I've used velcro for the fasteners (ease of use when it comes to a baby and I just happened to have it on hand), and the ears flop to the sides, just like a lop eared rabbit. I was having some trouble last night trying to figure out how to attach the lining to the sleeves. I called my mom, who is well and truly learned in such matters, and I still couldn't figure it out. After a second phone call and a quick net search I was still flummoxed. So my mom came over and showed me what she meant.

Have I mentioned yet that my mom totally rocks?

My mom, still getting over a particularly nasty cold, drove over, showed me how to roll the lining into the sleeve so it could be sewn, then drove home so she could watch a mystery/cop programme made by the BBC at 9. I'm amazed that she would do that. She didn't have to. It's possible I might have figured it out or, which is an even greater possibility, I could have popped round sometime today to have her show me. But she came by and I managed to finish the jacket last night.

On a completely unrelated note...
The Giant Tiger in Cambridge (the one in Preston, on highway 8) has on the heading-towards-KW side of it's sign "Run. The Bunnies Are Coming." It tickles me everytime I think of it...:)

I still laugh at a church that had on it's sign this morning "He was crucified, he died and was buried"

How obvious ;)
