Made a carrying pouch, making use of the leftover nylon fabric from the rain pant project.

Today it was too hot to do, well, anything, really, so we decided to take a day off and rest.
Which means that I've spent the whole day #handsewing.
Which, one could assume, means that I've finished the vampire shirt? of course not, I still have to attach two pairs of finishing patches to the sleeve slits, of course.
But I've worked quite a bit on a new-ish project, so that's good, right?
And to be fair, I had cut the fabric for that project close to two years ago, so it didn't completely count as a *new* project either.
(It's a towel hair wrap, and a second one in a lighter fabric to use as general head wear)

Milpitas Library"Do you have...
...a stuffed animal with the stuffing leaking out?
...a shirt with a missing button?
...a hole you want to patch?
...a stain you want to cover up?
Bring it to the Mend with Friends mending club and let’s fix it together! If you are curious about sewing, we can also introduce beginners to some basic #HandSewing stitches.
No registration is required; bring your own items to mend, project to work on, or practice basic stitches with our fabric scraps! Limited mending supplies for hand sewing and casual instruction are available, but bringing your own favorite tools, extra buttons, fabric scraps, or experience to share is always appreciated.
Children are welcome to accompany their caregiver and learn alongside them.
We meet every month on the second Saturday!"
