Being an invalid...

...leads to much hand sewing.

I have had sugery on my left foot and can't really walk a lot. I should also ideally spend most of my time with my foot elevated. This keeps me from the computer long times, because it's stationary and I can't get my foot in a good position.

What it doesn't keep me from is hand sewing.

Last week (three days): a new regency gown, all hand sewn.

Embroidery on cuffs and sewing of cuffs and neckband with ruffles for my friend Måns' new 16th century shirt.

Today: A new regency indoors cap.
