Oh, I love these clothes. They are all so cute. They are exactly what I would want to wear if I were a four year old. Kinda fancy. No ironing required. Everything sort of matches in a hippy way.
Yeah, I know they have grown up gear and it is nice, but not the same. There's no chicken tee shirt with a printed corduroy twirly skirt, striped tights and purple boots. Which, considering how that might look on me is probably a good thing.
See, I have a big project due, some real work that needs to happen. And I am on-line browsing. I read an article about how this was a big week for on-line shopping and I guess it just made me think, gotta get some of that. So I am looking at fancy sweaters and googling children's toys and visiting the Camper shoes site...it is procrastination in my jammies. Which, come to think of it, I could use some new ones...

felty mania, the home game
Oh, I am having so much fun. I am making these small figures out of wire and then wrapping them in wool roving and felting it. These are so cool. So far I have made about 3, but I am working on my technique. I want to make them for my friends, you know, put little outfits on them and pose them in weird ways. I may also make them for Cleo, a whole family.
So today I am in the office with Nora and Jane asks me if I have tried the brush mat we have for the felt needles. I have been using the foam one, but with the brush mat you can use the springy felting needles. Oh, lordy. It is even easier. I felted a flower on Nora's hat right then and there. Yes, I took it off of her.
