12 hour day at day job, one hour with Beloved Spouse, 3 hours in the studio.

Was gonna have a look at what's new in the world, but find I am too tired... I leave you with something that could be a pile o'crap.


Or it could be a gathering of beautiful swaths of silk.

OR....

Cloth labels, thread clipping, lint rolling, oh boy!

But I'll done. For this week.  PHEW.  ;)

Today is a Monday long weekend here - known as "Simcoe Day".

Today we celebrate (or give thanks!) for Lord John Simcoe.

He was a pretty cool dude, with an interesting military, political and judicial career. He introduced trial by jury, the basis of modern courts and established the City of York - later known as the City of Toronto.



The coolest thing he ever did though?  He abolished slavery in Upper Canada.  Thanks Lord Simcoe! It's celebrate *you* day!

Enjoy your Monday, I'll see you on Wednesday!
