I go through brief and intense periods of crafting ADD in which I have started as many as 5 or 6 new projects all at the same time. Shortly after the CADD episode, I will go through a period of crapathy (craft + apathy...clever, no?) where I don't want to work on anything or I work on one thing, but with kind of a meh attitude.
I think I eat too much sugar for breakfast. Or maybe it's the coffee. I drink a lot of coffee.
Either way, I'm in a CADD week! Yay!! New projects!
I need a new wallet and I hate buying pre-made things, especially if I think I could make something similar or possibly even better. My honey spends a lot of time laughing at me because of it. We'll go into a store, and I'll say something like:
"Oooh! That is a cute purse."
To which he replies
"Well, it's only X dollars...why don't you just get it?"
Me: "Yeah, but I could make that. I could make that reeeal easy."
I think the reason that he laughs at that so much has to do with how often I say "I could make that". I would probably have to live for a thousand years to actually make all the things I've said I could make.
Anyhow...here's the wallet!
He looks a little sad in this picture...
I love this canvas-type fabric, cause I can draw right on it with pencil.
This is where I left off last night.
The green stuff is not part of the finished product. I had to add a little "border" cause I put the front part too close to the edge of the fabric and couldn't work it in the embroidery hoop! Jeez.
Well, off to work on various projects, including my new, soon to be open ArtFire store!!!
