So glad you found it -- it is so pretty!!

I want to learn to do bargello plastic canvas stuff.  Love your purse.  I didn't know they had ready-made purse forms.  There's no Hobby Lobby near me, but I'll check local crafts stores.

I went to a 92 year-old lady's destashing sale and bought a bunch of crewel wool.  It would be perfect for plastic canvas, but I don't know how to use it.  I vaguely remember making plastic canvas coasters at my Grandma's as a little kid, but I've forgotten how.  I think you've inspired me to buy an instruction book.

LOVE it!!!!!

Ooh, pretty!  That first close-up of the beige and brown makes me drool.

Love the peacock one too!  And I admire your patience wiht hand-carding.  I tried it a couple of times and it drove me crazy.  I keep meaning to try it again sometime.

Very pretty!  It looks so soft!!

To this day, when I ply, I almost always ply with thread, because I hate "losing" any yardage of my handspun yarn.  I think it's because I only dye and spin small quantities at a time, and like you, I want to get the most bang for my buck.

Pretty bag, Teknicolor!

Thanks for looking!

Great job!  Auntie Olive would be proud, and would be so happy to know her gift has been a long-lasting source of comfort to you.

This is so cool!

Thank you!  I love Artscraps -- it's fun to rummage through barrels of things to find something to use for a project.
