That’s cute!
Thanks for the thread! I am having a hard time grasping that it’s April & 1/4 of the year has flashed by already!
I don’t have to organize to have yarnover. I just have to play in it.
Strange question, but does anyone know where to get large amounts of wool fabric, really really cheap? It doesn’t have to be good quality, it just needs to be cheap and made of wool.
(I’m looking at possible building techniques for when I can finally start construction on my house. Because of changes in the market and my tight budget, the technique I first planned to use won’t work. I found a building technique that looks promising, but it requires LOTS of fabric. I’d rather use wool for the insulative properties, but it’s ok if the wool is ugly, itchy, or full of debris.)
I am finally working on a sewing project, first sewing in about a year or a little longer.
I retired on 3/4 and trying to sort out my new lifestyle, but am making 12 placemats for my daughter-in-law. She got new dishes last year, and is still using some old placemats I made for her for the prior set. The old ones are fading, and not really a good coordinate with the new dishes. My granddaughter (her mom) helped me pick out the new fabrics. I have 9 done, and just need to bind the last 3, plus re-do the binding joins on the first 3, as I am not satisfied with those and have plenty of time.
I thought a fairly limited project would be good to kick off or reignite the sewing bug for me.
After the last 2 years, it seems to work best to be careful in setting expectations/goals, since so many aspects seem to quickly get out of our control...
Thanks for this thread! I love to read about others’ projects and ideas.
