My cousins sent me one of the valances that Aunt Johanne had made using counted cross stitch. It was long and it took me a little while to figure out where it could be used in this house.
I ordered a new curtain rod and it arrived today, so then I got busy. The only curtain rod that I could find that would clear the current wooden valence over the doors to the deck, was double wide. So, I spent some time un-sewing the curtain rod pocket and then sewed a new one. The rod went up pretty quickly and the valance is exactly the right length for this set up.

Today is 165 days of Covid19 self quarantine. A few Colorado friends were exposed to the virus through their golfing group, they are getting tested. It's worrisome, and a reminder that the virus is out there in circulation. I don't feel like I am 'living in fear' like some folks seem to think I am, but I feel safe sticking with my essential travels only routines.
Peace.
