Last week

 Apart from that little meltdown on the 14th, and another on on Saturday, I have had a good week. The weather continues to be beautiful and I am out walking every day. Friday I walked to the nearby town of Mölndal and met Inger, my friend who has had cancer, and we sat two metres apart and talked for a couple of hours. Saturday evening was also lovely - I had spent the day indoors because I was listening to a zoom conference on Merlin all day (and made cinnamon rolls) so after dinner I walked to the nature reserve a little more than 2 kilometres away that is my favourite walking goal these days. I climbed the top of the mountain and sat there, watching the sun disappear behind another mountain.

Yesterday I only had a short walk with hubby before he started working, but I managed to make the newsletter for Gotvik,. the SCA barony that I'm a part of - it took maybe five hours, and I wached the free streaming of the Phantom of the Opera from Royal Albert Hall  that was on youtube for 48 hours. I have seen it lvie too, which of course is better, but this was really good.

I have also sewn most of the construction seams on my new 12th century gown, it has LOTS of gores so it takes time to hand sew, and then fell them, and I have also hemmed it. I haven't sewn the sleeves together because I don't have the lining fabric and I want to treat the lining and main fabric as one. I will however baste them together now, so that I can see how much I want to take in the gown at the waist, it is currently based on my chest measurement, since I chose rectangular construction. Before I have worked with my waist measurement and then added gores at the bust and hip, but that was with the pleated on skirt, and I wanted to try another variant this ime.

After that I will add a strip of sturdy silk or linen to the edges and then start on the lacing holes. But first: tea.

Still no cold symptoms, just allergies and arthritis.
