What best to do when it is stinking hot?

Sew of course! I have to say that I actually don't mind the heat. I rather like the change of seasons and the fact that here they are distinctly very different. Unfortunately my sewing room is upstairs so it was rather a lot warmer than downstairs but it was still nice to get some sewing in. Well it was nicer before my overlocker decided to have a fit (anyone want to tell me why my Janome keeps breaking the bottom looper) but I carried on and produced this......

It is a reversible tote bag with a cross tie top. I am quite in love with the design that was inspired by a tote a friend just bought. I also made a number of drawstring bags to go with it for the recipients many pairs of dance shoes.
