I'm back to doodling today.
I actually have something in mind but I'm not real sure about it, so I am just doodling a little bit to give me a more broad concept of what I am envisioning.
I am not really good when it comes to working with fine thread when I crochet. The stitches are not consistently the same size, so this too gives me the opportunity to work on this area. I think it is because I don't work in this element enough to perfect it to my liking.
If anyone has a secret to how they obtain consistency with their stitches with a really fine thread, I'm all ears.
Maybe about another hour of this and I will call it a day.
I had planned to have a garage sale today, but I woke up a little late, so I will attempt again next week or tomorrow.
I think I am becoming a night owl, my sleeping patterns are changing and I seem to be staying up later because something comes to mind and I have to attack it at that very moment. I am actually sleeping in, that's like, sinful for me.
I was able to put together another vintage pattern last night. This one I did not complete, but I will in the future. I am thinking I will modify it with a 4 ply yarn and use the pattern but adjust the size to make an ipad holder or something like that.
It was interesting because you use buckram, (which I have never heard of before, shows you how much I sew), which appears to me to be a very sturdy material. I think the stability of this material will make a great purse, as pictured, but also a great case for ipads, computers and what not.
I love the pattern on this purse. What really intrigues me is the bow. Gives me ideas on ways to use my vintage jewelry.
What do you think?
I haven't put this in my Etsy store yet, but you can always click on the Etsy banner at the bottom of the page to check, and it should be there in a couple of days.
Until then, have a great weekend and see you Monday,
Debra
