Because I don't have enough unfinished stuff as it is, eh?

In any case, I'm playing with the idea of making a smaller version of this drawstring bag. Smaller because none of my fabric rests is big enough for a same-sized one. Mine will be 24cm by 20cm - that is the biggest I can do. The outside will be red, with small white flowers, for the inside Mum promised me an old pillow case that is white, with red dots. We'll see if Louise and I can manage the task.

I also found two small pieces of 100% cotton fabric, left over from the Doll House quiet book. At least one of them will become another cherry stone pillow. If I get a bigger amount of cherry stones from one of my friends, then there will be two more or less identical pillows.

The other ongoing project, the shabby chic journal, is still in the same state. Paper work is best done in the morning, when we don't get direct sunshine, so I can open the dratted Venetian blinds and have natural light for my work. This week I usually had other things to do in the morning (like going to the dentist or making food runs), so tomorrow will be the first day when I can do some peaceful crafting. *fingers crossed*

You have all the time in the world, so where's the problem? 😁

Who said there was a problem? Save, perhaps, for the 50% possibility that I'll screw up the bag and butcher my largest piece of leftover fabric. ;))

No, seriously, I like it when I have projects o work on. It makes me look forward to each new day. There isn't much else to look forward to in these times.

Thanks. The master plan is to cut out the outside of the bag and finish the inside of the front cover for the journal. What I'll actually get done is another question, of course.

It's good to have a master plan! I like that. A crafty way *cough, cough* to set your project goals!

You are like my husband, 15,000 unfinished projects and always adding more.

Guilty as charged! I just can't help give every promising idea a try - and the things seem to multiple when I'm sleeping!
