Sick Days

It's hard working out when to take a sick day when you set your own hours. I've been struggling into uni through various bugs this winter, but decided on Tuesday that enough was enough, and maybe having a chance to recover might be a better option. So two internet-less days at home, feeling better, and I've discovered a previously unknown passion for slalom canoeing.

Not much sewing done though. The most productive thing I've done has been making fingerloop braided cords (see here for examples of fingerloop braiding) that are being sewn into the edges of the bodice, which will hopefully minimise any wrinkling once the lacing is in. My mission for this weekend is finding a fishing shop - they sell small brass rings that are perfect for lacing (no matter what anglers use them for!).
