Line 'em Up

 

    Here are the pictures I promised of the finished fabric pods.  Free stitching to enhance the fabric design was the most fun. 

There is a fair amount of hand stitching required, which can sooth the busy mind.  Here is the pattern you can purchase for upload. 

 

 

 

 

This post is a test. I found an app for posting from my iPad since the Blogger app was shut down awhile back.  

Using the site on the iPad proved ineffectual. Blogger Touch is the name.  We will see what I think once posted. 

Little Obsessions

I have lots of them, obsessions, but this is the one that has gotten me through some recuperation at the moment. Winding thread, yarn, & bakers twine. I have no idea how I ran across this instructional video on winding a skein of yarn. One look & I was hooked. 

I purchased a rainbow of bakers twine from The Twinery some time ago. I use it in the kitchen as well as for book binding and other projects. The larger balls are Candlewicking thread I have had literally for decades.

 

One of the pods I obsessed over earlier & blogged about is the perfect container for my little tightly wound balls of softness.

This was the first pod I completed. I will get pictures of the others up soon. I used fabric I'm in love with from a dye class so  they need to be shared.
