Also, the sewing machine I used yesterday was still there this morning (I put it away now.)

I carved &#8216;week-stamps&#8217; to use in my Chronicles journal, and they turned out wonderful! One night, I sat on our big dining table carving the last ones, when my beloved pointed out how nice the stamps looked in lamp-light, a play of light and shadows, so I got my camera to take a picture. Here&#8217;s another photo.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.maritspaperworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/weekstempels-02.jpg\"><img wpfc-lazyload-disable=\"true\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17955\" src=\"https:\/\/www.maritspaperworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/weekstempels-02.jpg\" alt=\"weekstempels-02\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.maritspaperworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/weekstempels-02.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.maritspaperworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/weekstempels-02-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I am very pleased with this series! I carved a &#8216;line-stamp&#8217; to go with the dates and used the stamps to create week 15 in my art journal.
