I’d have to use a stopwatch to be sure. I always take a break between halves though. Knitting mail will cramp up your hands pretty quick. I don’t think I could make more than three of these bags in a day without wrecking my hands.
Edit: Also the ones with slightly larger rings are easier, the ones like this from all 1/4 inch rings take longer if I mess up the first step. And for some color patterns I might mess up and need to redo a few rows which also adds time.

anyone know why this link isn’t oneboxing?
My masks are getting better. My father’s mother was a seamstress, who supported 8 kids and a couple of useless husbands with a treadle sewing machine. I’ve been told that she could look at a dress, then look at a person, and make that dress for them, without even measuring.
My abuela was not a nice person, sometimes horrible and abusive, but I do admire the ability to sew beautifully. I’m not there, but I am getting better!

And no, that is NOT a voodoo doll of Mrs. Potts next to it, LOL!
I’m so proud of where my business is at. I started it up a little over a year ago. The owners of this venue and I have been planning to have yoga events out there and now it’s finally happening.
That looks amazing! Congratulations on putting this together…
Thank you. I have a group that is forming to travel to the retreat. I’m so excited about it. I think it’s going to be lovely.
Stay healthy!
Give us a full report once it’s done…
I will! I’m sooo excited. The place is a total haven.
Congratulations - does that make you…
a Chattanooga Guru?
Yes! The chop chop is about 2 mi from me, btw.
A year ago, I started a model railroad kit – not a railroad car, but a building. The photo on the kit box suggests it should look like this:
Your typical old-fashioned corner drugstore.
The walls are beautiful flat plaster castings, molded from hand-carved masters, that you have to sand and fit at the corners. But I screwed up the corners; they didn’t come together as nicely as shown in the picture. Then I managed to poke a finger through the delicate entrance section.
Phooey.
After some thought, I decided to see if I could replace the plaster walls with 3D printed ones. I used a free program (for making cameos from a photo) to convert an image of a brick wall to a 3D file, and used that as a starting point. Here’s the building in the CAD program (minus some trim and the doors and windows):
The pharmacist isn’t very busy at the moment.
did you put any real good drugs in it?

cory posted this image on his site because there’s a Kickstarter for these magnets.
my postman is a pretty cool guy, so I wanted to show my support. using that image, I freehanded the whole thing (erasing all the guidelines and sketchy lines before filling in the blue)
Good idea!
