I feel like a felted purse factory.
I was reading about a mental condition called "hypergraphia" this morning, wondering if I have it. I don't think I have it. But I am beginning to suspect I have "hyperfeltedbagia". This condition sounds much worse to me. Mostly because wool yarn costs a whole lot more than a cheap notebook and a bic pen.
I just KNEW something was wrong with me! I am NOT a hypochondriac. I don't think. . . . Well, perhaps a little bit. Maybe. Possibly. Oh crap, I don't know. All I know is my fingers are itching to begin the next bag. (And I didn't even show you the red and purple one I finished the other day for my mother in law) I felt like it made me seem mentally deranged to be cranking these things out for no apparent reason.
Half of me is saying, "Somebody stop me!" And the other half is saying, "Get between me and my yarn and you'll be taking your life in your hands!"
Well, there could be 1 percent of me standing in the middle of these two extremes, cowering in abject terror. But we won't go THERE.
Because beyond that point, there be dragons....

I'm working on hubby to put some hooks on the porch so I can have some hanging planters with Petunias, Geraniums and maybe Heliotrope. I haven't decided for sure what I want to put in them.
Up here, K-Mart, Wall-Mart and Fred Meyers all have tons of Petunias right now. Maybe you're not looking in the right place?
Hey, speaking of felted bags (your entry) where do you get your wool yarn? I've looked all over up here for it and all I find is 100 %acrylic and 100% cotton. Nothing else. I know I'm not looking in the right places, I just don't know where the right places are!
Also, any idea if you can dye the cotton yarns like you do the wool?

Cotton yarn will take dye, but you have to be particular about the dye. I think RIT dyes would be fine. Kool-aid not wash out but fade a great deal. :o)

This is the way I feel about reading.. book after book I have several chosen even before I finish one. O.. this one next, and then..... this one.. and then............
It is kinda compulsive ... is it not?
But at least in your compulsivity you create. . Creativity is good!
it is a beautiful talent what if Beethoven had spoken like this about notes part of me wants to take a permanent rest well where would the world be without his music
and where would the world be if you stopped making these purses without a purse boutique
