I was on my way upstairs with a basketful of laundry to unload. When I walked by my craft room, I heard grumbling and wistful sighs. I poked my head in to see what was going on. It seems the Patchwork Purse and my sewing machine are unimpressed with my detour into the world of yarn. The little piece of patchwork was sitting patiently on the craft table, wondering if she would ever truly become a real purse with a zipper. My sewing machine went for the jugular. She asked if I still loved her. Gasp! Of course I still love her! I begged her forgiveness and assured her that that she would forever be my true love. I then promised the Patchwork Purse that I would give her my undivided attention as soon as I got the laundry put away and wrote this blog post. I then appeased her by taking her picture and wooing her with proclamations of my love and her beauty. I guess I will put the yarn away for a little while. It is so hard to be caught in between two worlds. LOL!
Sometimes I really dislike having two addictions. Right now I'm really in a quilting mood, but every time I look at my stash, I see something else I want to knit. Sleep is so overrated!!!

You're SO funny! I feel like I'm caught between about 5 worlds and there's never enough time for any of them. Poor little purse. Loved but neglected!!!

I am always blown away by your attention to detail and craftsmanship! My seems never lay that flat or look so straight!

I love your wit! I confess there are many days that go by before I even step foot into my sewing room. Maybe I should get off of the computer now and go sew something? Yes!

Oh please don't put your yarn away! I am so anxious to see how it turns out. Can't you tell your patchwork piece that I am desperately waiting to see what you are doing with your crochet and it would be most impolite to keep me waiting? I am sure it will understand (I am sure it's a she because she has been waiting for you so patiently! A he would have made so much noise that you would have been forced to walk in to see where the noise came from!) Greetings from Germany

I feel your pain. I have to keep my fabric and yarn in two different rooms or it is like the Sharks and the Jets around here.
