Constructive distraction
I surrender… the crafty bug has completely taken over. I stopped by SCRAP yesterday to pick up project materials, and part of my haul included a really cool piece of patterned vinyl. The vinyl turned out to be inappropriate for the original project, but as I was putting stuff away I looked at the vinyl again and realized it would make a super-cool coin purse. The task of putting stuff away was immediately put on hold and I went digging for complimentary fabric and notions.
I put in a few minutes on a construction sketch, then got to work. Useful lesson learned: Feed dogs and pressure feet do not like stretchy pleathery vinyl.
Not bad for an hour of tinkering with random materials. I don’t know which is more dangerous… That I am so easily distracted by little ideas like this, or that I have the materials on hand to assemble projects like this at the drop of a hat. Hmm…
