The backing fabric was in my stash. The ribbon was from the seam tapes that have been dyed that I purchased last month.
I really like using seam tape to ruche. It is just so much easier to work with and I have ordered from three different places and loved it from all of them. I can make cute bows or ruffle it....definitely like it though.
The previous orders and colors I have used to make some cute bows for ornaments, but this crinkled stuff will be exclusively for ruching.
A closer view.
And... where it will go later in the week after St. Patrick's Day.
I have tried to remain calm through this crazy virus thingie. Mother is in a panic. Lindsay is on alert. Paul Allen immediately started texting me that I couldn't get out and I must start taking Airborne immediately. That is his answer for all sickness. I feel loved by my kids because they have been very attentive to me. I have a compromised immune system with all my autoimmune issues. I took all those biologic drugs for years. I have been off for about 4 years now, but I have some residual problems from taking them for so long.
As I said I was remaining quite calm...trying to be the calm one for Mom and Lindsay and then....
I had an appointment scheduled with my wellness doctor. For those of you have followed a long time and know my health journey he has been a blessing and an immeasurable good thing in my life. Once my mother's neurologist, I strongly value his opinion.
He says this thing is very serious. I have to be honest. I had chosen to live in a fog. No, I haven't gone anywhere other than that, but more just choosing to tune out the news. I am a closet prepper:) Not really a prepper, but a Nancy Drew sort. I don't have to panic with food and supplies, but with health that is another story.
I am locked down and concerned and hope this thing goes by quickly. I got some solutions to try for my thyroid although I will stay with my current treatment plan to stay out of the doctor's office. He has recommended a new medication for me to ask my doctor about when I go. I have a scheduled appointment in May with her but don't want to go early since I need to isolate myself as much as possible.
I plan to do some baking tomorrow for freezing and general puttering around the home. I will also be stitching more on the blue jays. I will update soon on that.
Everyone stay home and take care of yourselves.
