		<title>New Costume</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m performing for the first time as my troupe&#8217;s student apprentice at the end of June, so I&#8217;ve started working on my costume.  Since I&#8217;m the baby of the group (story of my life) I have a lot of catching up to do!  The troupe does a mixture of different folkloric styles and straight-up East [...]]]></description>

		<title>How One Floridian Survives the Arctic Atlanta Winter</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Having spent the majority of my life in and around Florida, most recently South Florida, the move from climate zone 10 (min temp 30F) to zone 7 (min temp 0F) has been an adjustment.  Only made worse by dim memories of early childhood in mountainous rural northern New Hampshire, which my research tells me is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Quickie Update</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not dead!  Promise.  The costumes worked out pretty darn well at DC, I cut one (the bellydance costume, just wasn&#8217;t comfortable wearing it) and ended up just doing my Steampunk Time Traveller and my Punk Rock Kimono.  I lost my good camera somewhere along the line, so I&#8217;ve been relying on [...]]]></description>

		<title>Alliterative Project Progress</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I finished up all sorts of things this weekend.  I got the Velveteen Vest to a fitting place, and I also finished up the Butterfly Bloomers with Bows for a friend&#8217;s costume.
(Spoiler Alert!  Friend for whom I am making the Butterfly Bloomers with Bows!  There will be pictures further down!)
So, the Velveteen Vest.  Velveteen is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Costuming Paralysis</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Sewing Panic has me in its scratchy horsehair grip, and I&#8217;m having difficulty seeing the sewing events of last weekend as anything less than a disaster.  I think I&#8217;m just being paranoid though.
Good Stuff I Did:

Got the Punk Rock Kimono to a fitting place.  It doesn&#8217;t fit the way I&#8217;d hoped and I am [...]]]></description>

		<title>Costuming Time Again</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve begun work on my Punk Rock Kimono, which is loosely based on some tunics I stumbled across in a Google image search.  Since I couldn&#8217;t find any patterns for Punk Rock Kimonos, I decided to wing it.
It is exhilarating.
You can&#8217;t tell me I&#8217;m doing it wrong!  There are no directions!
So, I began with the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Stitches South 2009</title>
		<description><![CDATA[They didn&#8217;t allow cameras inside, but there was much rejoicing and picture-taking outside:

1. Goooood Yarn&#8230;, 2. Footless Sock, 3. Doing the Happy Tilli Thomas Yarn Dance, 4. Stitches Loot
Created with fd&#8217;s Flickr Toys.
Mom and I got a little high on yarn fumes.
The Stitches Yarn Market took up most of the top floor of the Cobb [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Thirsty Knitter</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It seems I always feel like taking a picture of my knitting when I&#8217;ve settled down somewhere with a beverage.
  
I&#8217;m not sure what it is.  Maybe having a beverage means it&#8217;s time to relax and enjoy the scenery for a few minutes.
I&#8217;ve started a few other projects lately.  One of them is a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Spinning and plying, plying and spinning</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am totally in heaven.
 
Look at all this yarn!  I made it!
I even learned to Navajo ply* for the roving I dyed.   It&#8217;s fun and I like the three-ply yarn it makes.  It&#8217;s tricky to manage how twisty it gets, though, but I&#8217;m learning.
I used the Lazy Kate to double-ply the gray, and that [...]]]></description>

And here&#8217;s a photo collage of the unpacking and assembling process:

1. Opening the Box!, 2. The Ladybug Emerges, 3. Little Box of Accessories, 4. Detailed Assembly Instructions, 5. Accessories Unwrapped, 6. Double Treadle All Sunggled in its Blanket, 7. Double Treadle Yin and Yang.  [...]]]></description>
