Why have things been quiet around here?
a) I'm still obsessed with The Killing, and because it's subtitled I can't play on the computer at the same time.
b) When not watching The Killing I'm trying to finish 1Q84, which I'm finding really gripping.
c) The laptop suffered an unfortunate encounter with a cup of coffee and is now sitting in a bag of rice
d) All of the above.
The answer is, of course, D.
If anyone has happy stories about MacBooks that had liquid spilled in them & lived to tell the tale, please share them.
Despite all the above I have done a tiny bit of sewing - some pyjamas from the Oliver + S bedtime story pattern for Ali. I bought the fabric from Spotlight before Christmas - it's a Japanese cotton / linen blend, and I have the pink/yellow/purple colorfast in the same prints. I shortened the arms and legs for summer, but apart from that followed the pattern for a size 5. It came together without any trouble, and the front of the top sits nice and snugly - I wondered if the overlapping bits might flap around but they don't.
I want to make a matching pair for Milla (terrible, I know) but I only have this pattern in 3-6, so I'm going to use the Habitual kimono pattern for the top & improvise some shorts or bloomers. But that will have to wait until the laptop dries out because that's where my copy of the kimono pattern is saved.
