Monday list to do

Well, after being out so much all weekend, have a list of things to do. I need to do laundry, clean the den, make beds, clean the kitchen/breakfast room, take care of itty bitty baby (our pet name for her) go to the grocery and bank and sew. Sewing probably won't happen until after lunch. I have a few things to accomplish and don't feel too great. I had nausea and headaches alot this weekend, actually since Wednesday. For sewing, I want to adjust the BWOF muslin and work on the quilt-piecing. I have gotten pretty far on the quilt, finish the strips into the 9 patches and the 4 appliqued stars for the corners, then sew all together. I tried to work on it but the headaches were too much. I slept 10 hours last night and have sorta fasted so I feel somewhat better. BTW, little girl started really crawling this weekend (belly off the ground) so it's now watch out and katy bar the door time, because she is moving! She kinda creeps and crawls around, getting into alot, so sewing is restricted to her being in bed or her walker so she can't get into as much.

Is it oppressive?

Not much sewing going on here, but I have been cruising the internet more than usual and was not feeling well today. I came across a post on a blog today (Gertie) about whether vintage clothes are oppressive, going backwards. I do not think this at all, I think it is individuality, flattering and enhancing the feminine look, wishing for simpler life and times, and probably other ideas out there. I also believe men and women are different, but capable of being equals in various ways, but there are things that are inherently male and female. Different but equal. And have no problem with dressing up the physical to be attractive. Not to the extreme, but to look neat, appropriately dressed, made-up. I am not a feminist in the traditional sense, I am a stay at home mom with kids. I believe the differences are good. Now, I do believe in equal pay for equal work, but does that mean I want to do the heavy industrial physical work? No, but I know some women will and can. If they are c...

Once my kids go back to school, I may go through the fabric stash and make little scrap bags for quilting scraps for giveaways. On the home sewing front, I was able to get one top put together for daughter and the second is also sewn together. Both need bias tape finishing (handwork) which can be done in the evening in front of the TV. Maybe tomorrow I will get the remaining pants cut out, bringing her total to a possible 5 pairs of capri/shorts for school...
