Went to the annual Fathers' Day classic car show at the mall. This acid yellow & green Studebaker was one of my favorites.

Nearly halfway done with the stripes for my flag! I'll sew these two sections together tomorrow and then I can attach the union to them.

The view from my studio. The weather is lovely, but that also means the pollen is off the charts. If I go outside, I can't breathe. So everyone else plays in the yard while I watch from inside.

UPDATE as of 7.13.11: I am selling this Mei-tai carrier. It is in great, barely used condition. Please comment or message me for details and pricing.

I finally finished up the Mei-tai carrier I've been working on. This is my own design, a modified version of one I purchased when Otto was an infant (which had a few things I didn't like about it).

The back panel is patchwork on the outside and a single FQ on the inside, quilted with simple vertical lines. The straps are double layers of fabric which also act as the binding for the back panel.

Outside and inside views:

Otto brought all this back from a walk with my mom and then made a lovely arrangement for me to photograph.

I actually finished up James's blanket two weeks ago, but I just now got around to taking a picture of it.
