Yes, I went to Target! I was so excited. It is the first store that I've been to since November 2019. Of course it was with DH telling me to keep walking. We were picking up a prescription at the CVS pharmacy in Target. But it was glorious to see everything and pick out some stuff, like a furnace filter.
I tried out the Sublime iron-on transfer pen. I traced an Inspirations design onto paper. Then I picked some linen to try it on. The linen was rather wrinkled so it used some spray of Press something it. I think it was still damp when I put the transfer on it. Then I didn't realize the steam on my iron was still on. So anyway, it turned out a little blurry. I think it is still stitchable but I wanted to try it again without damp linen and steam in my iron. So back to the drawing board. I used a different scrap of linen and it turned out clearer. I like that the pen makes a nice fine line. First try:
I got a haircut.
It is raining here and cool and windy. A good day for stitching.
