I have the penultimate excuse for not sewing. It's called "other people's stuff on my sewing table"
I really like this long purple skirt in a stable knit. I found it at a thrift store a few years ago. When it's colder outside, I wear a long-sleeved shirt with it:
When it's warmer out, I wear one of these tops -- sleeveless, tank, or short sleeves. The sleeveless top was on sale at W*M, the tank top was bought at the flea market, and the short-sleeved top was found at a thrift store:
The tank top is not enough coverage for work, so I wear a slinky knit jacket (purchased several years ago) over it:
I don't wear bracelets or necklaces, but I do have some new earrings that go well with these clothes. Click on the picture to see how I made the earring hanger:
I'm thinking of getting the pattern called Pamela's Patterns Magic Pencil skirt for future use - specifically the dark purple ottoman knit fabric. I "think" it's enough to make another narrow skirt, if this one ever wears out! Click here to see the pattern I'm talking about.
More recently, I found another top at the flea marked that I can wear with this skirt. It's a printed slinky knit, and the printed "circles" go really well with my "moon and stars" earrings:
Watch out! I think I'm getting my sewing mojo back! With a little inspiration, my table is being cleared off. No patterns were harmed in the interruption of my sewing mojo:

A Little Crafting
We did a little crafting today. Items used for this project included a canvas stretcher frame, spray paint (the frame has actually been painted for several weeks), chicken wire, tin snips or wire cutters, pliers, staple gun, nails, and a hammer. No instructions, just pictures of the results:
