I spent some time last week cleaning out my craft closet, again. Please tell me that every one has this issue. It never stays clean. I collect and deposit and store, then clean and the process starts all over again. I did find an ornament felt kit this time. I had worked two of the ornaments out of the 50.
This kit has been packed in a box since 1991. I pulled it out and decided I was going to work on these again. I will admit though, I am not very good with the whip stitch. It probably isn't all that bad, but it bugs me that I can't space each stitch perfectly.
This led me to thinking about the sharpie I bought, and why not use my sharpie and crochet rather than whip stitch the felt pieces together. I am going to give it a try, and maybe, just maybe I will get this 22 year old project done.
I am steadily working on the vintage lantern purse pattern. Almost completed, but not quite ready to share.
I did promise to be back today, and I am just not going to get the lantern purse done, so I thought I would share some of my projects that have sat in a box possibly longer than some of you have been alive.
Now that scares me, where did the time go?
See you tomorrow,
Debra
