and now for something completely different...

My first collared shirt (and I can actually wear it).

I generally try to keep my rambling to science, nature and my garden, but I have a little secret, I dabble with sewing as well. Since I was given a sewing machine last winter, I've been interspersing short sewing sessions with my science to keep on track.

I'm excited that an essay I wrote about science and sewing is appearing in this month's Seamworks magazine. Check it out here.
