Patchwork friends made this for me 20 years ago.
See our hedges now ---- and see how much DH cut off
inspite of his wrapped thumb.
I am further dabbling in friendship bracelets - not actually needing
the bracelets but the knotting techniques.
There are knots like: right-right, left-left, right-left, left right.
I tried all of them not at this piece but the next one
which will follow in a few days.
I had to try this technique of knotting friendship bracelets.
When it was modern I missed it, I did not know about it.
Probably I was preoccupied with household, children, job,
sports and social life.
It is a bit like weaving - certainly much slower.
Now - I did not make these - except the fourth from the left.
You can recognize it at the bottom of this photo.
I laid my bracelet on top of the title of a book from which I
took the instructions.
Picture taken against the sun. A serious cut will be
needed. But DH had an accident with his thumb which
will keep him from such work for a while.
I can't show you any creative work - I am sure you don't want to see
heaps of pulled-out weeds, spider webs in my broom, mousetraps without
mice but eaten bacon -
It is my life inside and outside the farmhouse. I enjoy it!
