Dog, Barbie Things and Guests
Wow! Again time has flown without an entry. Tonight is doggie training class. The ten weeks have been extended as the instructor has been ill at times. She's canceled the next class and has invited all of us to come back anytime for the class beginning in July. But only with the same dog. Duh! I've enjoyed going to the class, meeting new folks. Even the dog has picked up some useful things.
I've made some Barbie furniture and bedding. I made a little bench that I want to upholster and I need to made a couple of benches and table to match. I want to pick up varnish that is other than mahogony. I used it to varnish a four poster bed I made in Tudor style. It turned out quite nice, with curtains on rods, fancy gold trim, upholstered headboard and more. Michelle made the tiebacks and fancied up the turned posts. All for Barbie sized dolls. I enjoyed making them, got really sick of the materials laying around. I used my outside workspace for the woodwork, but the sewing was an inside job.
I cleaned up a couple of closets, storing seldom used things somewhere else. Maybe I'll donate them. I'm making space for a houseguest who will arrive the beginning of July. We can always get new stuff for her to make her life more comfortable.
