helwenFinished up the doxycycline Wednesday night. PRN said to keep an eye on the tick bite site for the next few days; as long as it continues to improve, I'm good. If it gets worse again, then in I go for more treatment. So far, it looks unchanged, but I'll take it.
Finished a curtain for the west window in the upstairs bathroom. The center piece is from a silk scarf a local artist made, backed with a piece of turquoise organza I bought over 20 years ago for a LARP outfit that never happened, on a foundation of white cotton to protect the colors from the sun (also to actually function as a heat barrier). The cotton is from a set of curtains I made when we lived in Holyoke. There are also little seed beads near the top, along where I secured the organza to the cotton backing, but you can't see them in the photo.
I also hemmed the ends on a long piece of cotton cloth, to use as a tablecloth at the next family Christmas gathering (red with tiny gold ivy leaves), and sewed and hemmed a round cotton tablecloth of red and green plaid print for same reason. The latter came from the local fabric/craft swap we had in town earlier this year -- it was already cut and pinned, but for whatever reason the person who started the project never finished it.
Was pretty tired yesterday, so that's mostly it.
