I realize I haven't written in a while. Sometimes there's just no news. Other times I'm just swamped with life and can't get around to it. Lately it's been the latter.
I started a new job at a brand new local bakery - and I'm having a blast. It's a much better fit for me than the school I was working at earlier in the semester.
In the meantime - we've finished the back cushions in the salon!
If you remember, we made the base cushions and covered them this summer. Not a small project to tackle while learning to use our new
Sailrite - but it's done! And now we've remade all of the back cushions and just this week finished making the cover for the very last one. There will be a separate post on that.
We also managed to actually finish some other small projects over the last month or so:

The original disgusting and slippery/dangerous companionway steps |

During the removal - the fist and last step came right off. The other two needed a hammer and chisel... Seriously.
Done! And the best part? It's not $120 worth of "marine" material - it's a $14 yoga mat! And only half of a mat at that - so it'll even be possible to replace this (waterproof, antimicrobial, super-comfy/traction-y) material AGAIN if we need to. :) |
