Hello my lovely friends π
My name is Tina…and I’m a procrastinator π aka ‘non-finisher’ of projects!
*I crochet everything to the point of fastening off, then set it aside, and start something new. Repeat from *
But last week, as I was eyeing the ever growing pile of (mostly) bags, I gave myself a mental kick in the bum.
The daunting task…weaving in ends π£
Oh well – it needs to be done.
And, as you can imagine, there were a lot of them!
This is just the final batch… I had thrown away quite a few already before I remembered to take a picture! π
Eventually that was done…yay Party π… now the linings.
Out came the sewing machine
And now they’re done! πͺπ»
I still have two that are a little further away from being finished…they’re next. π
The bag-making process had to be put on the back burner, because I got a custom order for a feather headdress! Yes, you read that right…a lovely lady ordered a Native American inspired Headdress π³ She is so sweet, and already has quite a few of my creations (Jewelry, Ponchos, Dreamcatcher) so I really wanted to do this for her.
I did tell her up front that this was completely new to me, and I didn’t make any promises! But she had a lot of confidence in me, and cheered me on from the sidelines! π
Well, long story short – I did it! And she is over the moon happy! π What more could I ask for?! π
If you wanna see for yourself…here it is
The creative process was a lot of fun, and I really enjoyed the challenge! π
Now back to the bags!
One more thing, then you can carry on π
Spring is finally here! π·π·π·
The temperatures are climbing, the grass is green! π The trees are lagging behind a bit, but that’s understandable…we still had frost last weekend!
I spotted these beauties in the yard this morning π
Now I may have to burn my winter clothes π I’ve been wearing them for 6 months, so I’m reeeaaalllyyy tired of everything!
Oh, sorry, I have one more – as you could probably guess…my back is all better! π Thank you all for the great tips to speed up the healing process. π My lower back is still a bit tight. When I bend forward at the waist my left knee comes up πππ But that’s not painful, and will get better with regular stretching. π
Now back to the bags π
I hope you have a wonderful, fabulous, sunny weekend! π
