Oh dear... I do seem to be lagging...

So I started this blog to prompt me to action to post the things I make and try not to be too concerned with how they end up. Now I am flitting between projects, the ugly ducking dress, still not sure how I want it to look, two very contrasting ideas are swirling in my head and I am not sure which to choose, a new pillow for my recently refinished rocking chair and a bag that I envision myself carrying to get groceries from the summer farmers market. However my indecision has left me with little but scraps, the time has come to pick one! (to do first) Perhaps the bag? Perhaps I'll post sketches.... oh if only someone else could decide....

Oh procrastination how I love thee....

Well I started this blog to move me to action to regularly create things not just wish that I did. Which is not to say that the things that I will make are particularly interesting, noteworthy, or even nice to look. But I decided to have at it so here it goes.

A swan, I am still undecided about adding an eye on one hand a nice little sleepy eye would be lovely. On the other hand.... not sure. I want to make a sweet little dress for my niece when she is a little older. In a dove grey with this as a little pocket on the bottom. Simple, plain almost stoic it will be an ugly duckling dress.....
