There, I've admitted it. My poor little apartment has crafty bits and pieces everywhere. It is organized chaos. I'm never searching for anything - that's a good thing right? Almost everything I see I think to myself "Oh! I could do that!". The problem is - I can't!! I start to try to sew something and my lines are all messy or I crochet a piece and I can't get the color switch right. I'm a self taught Crafty. Don't get me wrong - Quite often my concoction turns out quite pretty! Not exactly what I had in mind but unique and different. Sometimes not to pretty but we make and learn.
My project right now is for my potholder-less friend Charlie. She just redid her dining room set in a gorgeous black and when we had dinner at her place there were no potholders! So I am making her a lovely snotty green and soft aqua set of potholders and matching dish rags. I am doing aqua with a green skull and border. After 4 hours of frogging (rip-it rip-it) the poor little potholder I gave up at 2am. I can't seem to get the changing of the colors! I think I have an idea now and I will try again tomorrow night when I am a little more sane. They are so cute in my mind! Oh yes and her birthday was the 16th so I am a smidge late...
