Navy SCB and DLBP enjoying some spring sunshine.



The DLBP is new, having just arrived yesterday. While I was initially disappointed that olive was out of stock when I ordered, I love it now that it's here.

I don't believe I've seen the DLBP in Navy. It is swoon-worthy!

Finally added the much needed 4th shop bag to our collection. The baggers at Trader Joe's always compliment them.

TJ's consistently has the best baggers in the industry! I'm always amazed with how much and how well they can pack a bag!

A bit more photo spam of my gorgeous new Aubersky Swift! This is pretty much how I intend to use it - to collect small things and other smaller bags into a single, easy-to-carry item for schlepping around on road trips and stuff.

First, my little pile of acquisitions from today - Aubersky Swift, Steel/UV Side Effect (with custom cord pulls) and Aubergine Knitting Tool Pouch to hold the wired shutter remote for my camera. It's not terribly obvious in the photo, but the Swift is also tricked out with custom cord pulls on the interior zipper pulls (death to the jingle!) plus a UV keystrap:

Bonus teaser photo of the Aubergine/Steel Sprout with custom cord pulls - this contains the Tenba BYOB 7 camera insert, and Sprout-as-camera-backpack photos are coming soon!

This is a really helpful comparison-- so the Sprout is as tall (wide? Deep? What do you call the measurement along the Y-axis?) as the Swift?

Looks like we have the same Aubergine bags from this round of orders! (assuming the Sprout fits)

Is this the PCSB in Fjord?

He is a very tidy animal, thank you! :-)

My FJN is helpful in so many ways. It serves as my bullet journal. It holds my prayers. It keeps my knitting notes. Most importantly, it keeps me sane. And the kitty, well, he is also part of my mental therapy. I'm so glad you like him! He puts a smile on my face every day!

Haha, does he way of positioning himself so that he's sitting within the mat? Both my kids have a tendency to do that, but especially my boy. He fits nicely within the dimensions of a large OP while our girl is roughly S19-sized.

Cat therapy is one of the best kinds of therapy. Hope you're feeling better these days!

Oh my, such wonderful Aubergine and gray spam, Meglet!! It put me right over the edge, had to order against my best resistance to one more bag...even envisioning how my small shop bag in NWS might nest inside this Swift for bottle holding goodness. The size measurements make it look possible, anyone tried this?

OK, so I tried this, and the Small Shop Bag fits beautifully inside the Swift. You end up with double handles, of course, but you get good bottle pockets plus still a little bit of space between the outside of the SSB and the pockets of the Swift (a LITTLE bit of space, like you could slide large packs of beef jerky down between :p)

The Sprout is not quite as tall as the Swift, it just looks that way because of how it sits inside. It is also only about half as wide (left-to-right) and probably not even half as deep (front to back.)

Indeed it is; I think it's reflecting the table a little bit, giving it a bit of a blue-green cast.

I love it!

Thank you for checking this out, Meglet! Nice to know it's an option, might tuck the inside handles down and slide ipad air into the little space you mention. Looks like orings and clear pockets would still be accessible from the top. We'll see!

He is quite a logical cat. Last night I caught him sitting in the corner. Precisely in the corner with his tail bisecting the right angle at 45 degrees. He seemed to feel it was the best place for him to be in the room. He also seems to prefer the exact middle of our queen sized bed.

Maybe he's a feng shui cat, ie senses the best places and positions for optimal felicity for you and your family :)

And to keep this post somewhere near the topic, I caved in and went for my first travel tray, in Sitka. No pictures yet as it hasn't arrived.

LUV!

Off topic: how do you like your chair in the photo? I ordered the camp chair and the beach chair to compare. I wonder if the beach chair is too low (difficult to get off it) and the legs of the camp chair may sink. I need a chair that is light to take to dragon boat races.

I bought a cheaper brand, returned it because I tipped out each time I sat up and/or leaned forward. It is untenable to be leaning back on the chair the whole time.

I love the Helinox Chair One (in this picture). It allows you to sit more or less upright and high enough to enter and exit easily. It is also quick and easy to assemble. It will sink in soft dirt or sand, though. I have seen people put cut tennis balls on the legs to stop it from sinking. I also have 2 Alite Mayfly chairs which sit low to the ground, requiring you to lean back. Their leg shape keeps it from sinking much. The are good for outdoor events, and are smaller and lighter than the Helinox. But they are more fiddly to assemble, and more prone to breaking when the interior portion of the poles collapse in on themselves. I have already sent one off for repair after light use, and it took months to get it back. I would go with the Helinox. I do find the chair back of the Alite Mayfly shape feels wide and more comfortable, but despite that, I find myself choosing the Helinox more often because of its taller height and easier assembly.
