On Saturday I graduated! Like my hat? I think it fits Toby better than me.
This was my third graduation. I really don’t enjoy them at all. What I really wanted to do was this:
As I was graduating as a Doctor of Philosophy, this time I had to sit in the front row, which made it even worse! But I will definitely never be graduating with a PhD again, so I’m glad I did it, even though getting all dressed up and walking across a stage in front of hundreds of people was absolutely terrifying. I was so worried I’d forget what to do.
My thesis was about hospital treatment provided to nineteenth-century patients in London, Bermuda and Van Diemen’s Land (Tasmania). I put my sewing on hold during the three years it took to complete, and although I really enjoyed researching and writing, I’m loving being creative again!
Coming up this weekend: Niche! I will do a big sewing update very soon to show you what I’ve been working on. There has been a lot of sewing going on, just not much blogging…
