Sewing Factory

While Zach has been in Saratoga finishing up the construction on the bus, I have been frantically packing up our apartment on Cape Cod in preparation of our nearing departure date (yikes, we're actually leaving soon), and sewing the curtains! Ok, that's not exactly true, Mallory has been sewing the curtains, I have been ironing and pinning the material, and watching Mallory sew, totally in awe of her skills. I tried to do one seam on my own, and quickly realized that Mallory, queen of all things crafty, should be in charge of that part of the project. Mallory has been so kind to trudge over to my apartment nearly every day this week after she gets out of work at 8pm and we've stitched until nearly 1am every night, but we've finished, and the curtains look amazing. I did try to thank Mallory by feeding her risotto made out of all the items in my refrigerator that were about to expire or that I didn't want to move (it was actually pretty good) but really that's not enough. Jaco also tried to help with the curtain project, but if you don't have thumbs, there's only so much you can do. So, thank you Jaco for moral support, thank you Mallory for so much stitching, and thank you mom for the beautiful fabric that I'm sure is going to make the bus look like home. Oh, and thank you Norah Bourbon for stopping in to show us your lobster halloween costume, and distracting Jaco.
