Just a progress report. We goofed off yesterday afternoon, and I spent my time sewing.

1849 stockings: I am happy to report that I have gotten so far in my knitting as to divide for the heel and knit a sixth of the heel flap. It's the little things that are exciting in life.

1890's corset: Done! Well, I still need to make up a second lace for it because I found in trying it on that I don't like the single lace with "handles" at the waist. I like two separate laces.

1880's combinations: I've made good progress. Next up are the buttonholes, which I want to put in before I assemble everything into a full garment. I've skipped sewing the darts for now so I can fit them on myself.

Christmas ornaments: Done! The glue is drying, but they'll be on the tree later today.

Since I spent most of the afternoon sewing, I read before bed and finished up Murder in E Minor. Robert Goldsborough really captures the feel of a Nero Wolfe book, though I was a little disappointed in some of the plot points.
