I'd be afraid that I'd be making a wet, embroidered mess. :) Ah, but in the spring and early "winter"... that's when Florida is truly delightful for outdoor art projects. :)Kathleen Pequignothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08974056949082822445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7500979.post-28290460608553970102013-06-26T06:03:51.477-05:002013-06-26T06:03:51.477-05:00I save my hand sewing for car and train journeys, ...I save my hand sewing for car and train journeys, at home when it is warm I set my sewing machine up in the courtyard and piece like crazy.

My favorite part is leaving little bits of embroidery thread out on the bird feeder for birds to use in their nests.

I'm not great for small talk, and naturally on the shy side, so it either serves to give me something to talk about, or people assume I am concentrating and let me work.

Then the carpenter bees are being a little too curious. One started a hole under our 'lid' on makeshift small patio. Two ants crawled up my legs and a few assorted bugs came in on me... so I still like being outside but have to be careful. A wild turkey came walking down our gravel driveway yesterday.

I have a grab and go setup for my projects, which is okay, because I have limited craft organization space, I do not have a spare room or anything, just some sewing machine drawers, a large wooden (Danish? accordion) basket and a couple of floss bobbin boxes.
