A new thread...
First, do you just hate computers sometimes? You have a whole post done, a whole report, an especially thoughtful e-mail - whatever - and then...it's gone?
Anyways, I got some yummy fabric yesterday. I have been jonesing to sew since I found splityarn - she has some incredible tutorials. I want to try the coin purse and the needle case that starts as an old book. I got some snaps for the change purses - since I think the closure just makes the prpject so simple and clean. I love fabric like I love yarn, it is like meditation to hang out between the rows of bolts - like the closest to yoga I've been in a bit. I started a softie knitting needle case before my pilgrimage, I just need to find a closure and sew down some elastic to pin the needles in there better. Then I have to give it away, because you know... But again, I adore the fabric.
I haven't deserted knitting or anything - I think I am still just avoiding seaming that damn sweater. I have kept on with the Diamond Patch mittens, once I figured those little squares out, they were a little addictive...if not a little tedious - slow going.

I would swear that computers come straight from the devil!
I LOVE the fruity fabric and the needle case is absolutely gorgeous. Great start on the mittens!
Cute fabric. And thanks for linking the tutorials. I'm about to start sewing. (once the junk room is done) And I had no idea where to start. Now I know!
Fabrics can be addictive as yarn, ha! Latelly I am dreaming more of sewing than knitting! Must be some virosis.
BTW, great needle case and thanks for link!
Looks good. You beat me to it.
Are they terribly futzy, those little diamonds? Because I think I would go mad...
