The Pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela is a centuries old trek across northern Spain done by following "The Camino de Santiago", the road to Santiago. Before February of 2001 I had not heard of "The Camino" nor of the Pilgrimage. By the end of October of that year I was in Santiago after completing the walk myself. I thought that when I reached Santiago my journey was over but I see now that my journey started way before I got to Spain and still has not ended.
My 8th grade home-ec teacher made us write a fashion description of our sewing project. I felt so silly reading mine. Then she set up a fashion show for us to model our finished creations. I skipped class that day since I was a very self-conscious teenager and the last thing I wanted was to have a class full of girls staring at me.
So *that* is where I've been going wrong all these years :)
ReplyDeleteI've bought a new toy - an overlocker (what you'd call a serger). I shall not lead you further astray... yet...
But, blimey, wish I'd known about their possibilities years ago...
Don't tempt me! Don't tempt me!
ReplyDelete"Looking attractive is a very important part of sewing..."
ReplyDeleteHuh. Beauty advice + sewing, together. Like you I never knew this. Apparently my 7th grade home-ec teacher failed me on this point.

ReplyDeleteLooked up French Chalk. Talc, talcum powder. I wonder if that would help when I'm eating and trying to use the touch pad but my fingers are too damp.
ReplyDeleteMaybe a pool cue chalk would work.
