		<description><![CDATA[Lately, I&#8217;ve been full of introspection &#8211; more so than usual. As I manage to do from time to time (as The World&#8217;s Worst Buddhist,) I&#8217;ve been paying more attention to His Holiness the Dalai Lama when he pops into my periphery. He epitomizes so much I want to be in my life, yet short [...]]]></description>

As I was sitting in my car, post-craziness, I replayed the conversation I&#8217;d just had that resulted in my getting booted out of a local health food store I frequent often. [...]]]></description>

I knew I&#8217;d make the old standby, but was curious what I might be missing. There is always, always something better hiding just around the corner, right? Plus, new and exciting [...]]]></description>

First, however, I am compelled to share with you my experience at Michael&#8217;s Insane Craft Store. I don&#8217;t often go into Michael&#8217;s, because it&#8217;s stuffed to overflowing with all of these crafty things with [...]]]></description>

Last night, I decided to get Mom&#8217;s quilt&#8217;s panels tied where they needed tying, and then perhaps start on the binding. While tying went quickly,  it doesn&#8217;t flow [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Periodically, I see sewing blog posts regarding sewing injuries &#8211; typically, someone runs her finger under the machine needle (OW!) or stabs herself with a pin. Today, sewing drew its first blood on me, too. As I was putting together the pieces for the messenger bag (a pattern I&#8217;m not overly-amused with, btw,) I realized [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My sewing machine and I are having some&#8230; issues. We&#8217;re still learning each other&#8217;s quirks and needs. I wonder why, at random, the feed dogs* refuse to pull the fabric through, instead opting to make a bajillion stitches in and out of the same hole. It wonders why I occasionally decide to do something indicating [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You noticed I avoided the obvious pun, there, right? Anyhow. The folks at Sew, Mama, Sew and elsewhere have wonderful posts that make sewing look fun and easy and relaxing. Trouble is, so many of them assume (and rightly so) a basic working knowledge of how to stitch and assemble and whatnot. I would love [...]]]></description>
