There Can Be Only One

What HAVE I been doing since my last post, 4 years ago?
You know I warned you with the very title of my blog, time may pass...and it has! So, what have I been doing? Things, things, all the things!
Many, Many pics to come!!!
Making reusable facemasks
Sew and sew. Here in southern Alabama, there is an alarming lack of PPE or Personal Protective Equipment, including disposable facemasks for healthcare, first responder, and other workers.
So, I asked for volunteers to help me sew reusable facemasks to donate to those who need them. We are so grateful for the people who are on the "front lines" of this pandemic, putting themselves in harm's way, while many of us have to stay home, that we feel the least we can do is volunteer our time and materials making these protective facemasks, which could help prevent the spread of illness. I have made a detailed tutorial with pictures available, free, to anyone who wants to use it for non-profit purposes only. You may access the tutorial by clicking here 》 How to make a reusable facemask

Welcome to my brand-spanking new blog. I've been putting it off for sooooo long, because I really, really love to write and once I get started, I might just get sucked in!!! On the other hand, I have so many other things I'm involved in, I might not update it often enough and that will be just as bad! So, what to do.
I am just going to put a, hopefully, brief outline of some of the things you might find on my blog in the days, weeks, months, etc., to come:
