I feel some summer coming on.

Those of you who know me, even in passing, know that I’m not happy unless I’m juggling at least two projects.

Well, we’re gearing up for summer, and I’m planning all sorts of ways to recycle the fabric from two too-flimsy-to-fly paraglider wings. Grocery sacks, strong but light! Comforter filled with synthetic down! Windbreaker!

I think the comforter is the winner at the moment, but I’d welcome any suggestions you may have. There’s a ton of fabric from two gliders.

Also, in my quest for cute summer shoes with the limitation that they must be wood soled clogs, I’m not finding anything suitably adorable in my price range. Therefore, I’m going to make my own. I’ve procured three pairs of clog bases in my size from Anna clogs, and I’m sketching leather configurations for the tops.

 

SO EXCITED! I’ll post photos, don’t you worry.
