I&#8217;ve also found a bit sturdier of an iron on interfacing that seems to work really well.  I&#8217;m not sure of the name; so far I&#8217;ve been able to pick it out based on feel.<br \/>\n<strong>**Side note:<\/strong> Am I the only one who does that with interfacing?  All the women at the craft stores don&#8217;t believe me when I ask for other interfacing than what they have on display, and they&#8217;ll tell me, &#8220;Oh honey, these are the only kinds they make.  I&#8217;m sure one of these are what you need.&#8221; And I&#8217;m all like &#8220;no, I can tell the difference by touch, and this isn&#8217;t the same interfacing you had last month when I was in the store.  I swear there&#8217;s a conspiracy.<\/p>\n<p>\n<center><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/gallery.avenueb.org\/albums\/album85\/aat.jpg\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/gallery.avenueb.org\/albums\/album85\/aat.sized.jpg\" width=425 alt=\"inside the notebook\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>So, these, along with oodles of pouches and bags and other sewing have been keeping me busy this month.  Next Saturday I&#8217;ll be back in Ypsilanti, Michigan for the Summer Shadow Art Fair at the Corner Brewery.  It&#8217;s always a really fun day, so if you&#8217;re in the area, stop by, look at crafts and have a beer!  (You&#8217;ll have to buy your own, though.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I know that it seems like I&#8217;ve yet again, abandoned the blog, but alas, I am here.
