Sunday's Stitches....

I decided that for Sunday's Stitches this week I would dig deep into the bowels of my "box" - you know, the box I mentioned last post - experiments gone wrong - experiments gone right - and try to use only stuff out of there. So I dumped my box out onto the floor and sifted through two years worth of experimentation to come up with these:

I haven't made a dent in the contents of my "box," but it was fun digging through it and coming up with these little squares.

Notes to Self:

1. I absolutely need a "bigger" box (as this one is over flowing and it's hard to easily see what is in there); and

2. I need to go through my "box" more often. There's all kinds of cool stuff in there!

What am I going to do with these squares? I don't know. But I think now that I've decided I need to buy a bigger "box" for my experiments, perhaps I will use this box, for stuff that I've made out of the experiment box!

Carolyn knows where I coming from, as she so aptly put it in one of her recent comments-

"...chill, enjoy the processes and the learning curves, and those bits in the box will be the exact piece of "treasure" you need to finish off something one day!"

Thanks Carolyn - I think I'll do JUST that!!

Hey - What's in YOUR box???
