My fingers need a break. A lot of yesterday afternoon and this morning was spent in hand sewing on the bodice. That is because I made up this dress and didn't use a pattern. Patterns allow for more machine sewing, whereas making it up as you go gets you in more tight spaces.
So now, I am done as far as I can go with the bodice without another fitting......Hopefully it will fit perfectly! It will be sad if I have to undo and go with more alterations! But anyhow, I am going to start working on the outer layer of the skirt.
In the meantime, something I have never seen before till this week.....
Just outside our front porch we keep having leaves and dirt dumped. Not a ton, but every day.

It is obvious the wind didn't blow them there.
Then yesterday I spotted the culprits. 2 crows! They stand in our roof gutters and kick and dump out leaves. They must be finding bugs up there. They are a rather shy couple when it comes to photos. When I tried to take a picture of them they flew above me squawking. After they settled on the neighbors antenna I clicked their picture.
I don't suppose they want to clean up after themselves.
