Yes, this IS a sleeve, for my eyelet cardigan. Because of the way the shoulder extends down the arm, the length of the sleeve is quite short and straight across the top. One more to go and I can complete seaming the sweater to completion.
I also layered up the orphan block for the pillow and machine quilted it by stitching in the ditch which you can see from this back view. I studied the seams to see how I could quilt with the least amount of starting and stopping and was pleased to find that I only had to start in a new place three times. A little game I played that was pretty satisfying.
It's been hot here so I'm usually inside until the sun goes down and it starts to cool, making for some very pleasant evening walks that include some star gazing although I have little idea of what I'm looking at. I do spend a little time on my east-facing deck late morning to do a little reading. Its shade and slight breezes are equally a pleasant way to enjoy the waning summer. How are things like in your part of the world?
