HMF on Sunday

The last week has been a crazy dash to the finish line. I meant to blog this photo for Hand Made Friday, but just didn’t have the time. ☕️ #HMF

We're having a heatwave here with 100+ degree temps, so I'm working from home at the kitchen table with a hot sled dog at my feet. It's my jam.

I am summoning peace of mind.



Here's why I'm late with HMF--



His name is Kip, he's 10 weeks old, and he's a happy little bundle of fur.

I went overboard with the achenes, but more is better for wish granting, right?

I went for a walk at lunch today, but only got once around the block before I decided that walking in 90+ degree heat wasn't such a good idea. But while I was out, I snapped this photo of my HMF chain maille necklace. I hope you are well.

Stay-At-Home HMF

We're on the 11th day of the Stay-At-Home* Order. It hasn't even been 2 weeks but it seems like 2 months.

I'm working full time from home which was challenging in the beginning, but it's fine now. We're adjusting to being at home and only going out for essentials. In the beginning I was worried about feeling cooped up. But just yesterday I had to go to the pharmacy and the grocery store and being out in the world was very stressful. I had a N95 mask firmly in place and slathered hand sanitizer on when I got back in my car, but my mind kept telling me to go home, go home.

My Hand Made Friday is a fabric mask I made using this pattern. There is a nationwide movement to make masks because there is a shortage of the N95 masks that are needed to protect against the virus. Many of the N95 masks are meant to be used once and then discarded. Unfortunately, the shortage is forcing people to use their mask--if they are fortunate enough to have a mask--multiple times which puts them at risk. The washable fabric masks are not rated N95 and therefore are not as protective against the virus, but some people are wearing these over their N95 masks to extend the life of their masks, or are choosing to wear them by themselves with the thought that any type of barrier is better than nothing. What is most important is the wearer must understand and recognize the limitations of a fabric mask.

Oh, and I'm also wearing Jasper Herringbone earrings.

Be well.



* The Shelter-In-Place order was changed to a Stay-At-Home order because Shelter-In-Place is what they teach kids to do when there's an active shooter. What a world we live in, huh?
