well, it appears i have succumbed to my overpowering need to start a craft blog. it only took one week of furiously perusing other craft blogs for me to decide that i’d like to get lost in the world of ribbons, and antique fabrics, and tedious needlework. maybe at some point i’ll have the skills to sell some stuff, but for now, i’m going to fine-tune my craft on an ever-expanding list of personal projects. i’ve got my fingers in too many pies, folks (mmm, pies!).
project number one: Operation New Purse
my current handbag is one i designed and my mother made, as my sewing was not quite up to par at the time. it’s had a good run, but too long without upkeep is reducing it to tatters. i’ve planned construction on a new purse, made from the most beautiful green felt, ever:
i’m also rocking off relatives’ faces with my freshly-minted set of thank you cards:
not to mention the BF’s birthday presents, which– if they go according to plan– should include knitting (which i’ve only just learned) and embroidery (which i’ll have to learn). maybe i dream too big…
