More artsy than crafty, methinks. I take after Dad in the abstract department. But I looooooove paper. And books. I have an other blog built where I will display some of this stuff. So little time …
While I’m artistically incline, I have no talent; and attempts at either art or craft involving paint, glue, sharp tools, needles or crochet hooks will guarantee my complete humilation. I’m deathly afeared of my sewing machine to boot. (Evil spirits lurk in that little space they leave you so you can get to the bobbin.)
Dare I even mention my 1952-ish vintage Singer 301, that was Mom’s? (She has a righteous Bernina now.) I haven’t used it either — I agree, there are many nooks and crannies where evil may lurk. BUT, I WILL tame them.
(Would you believe a feckin’ bobbin case for that thing is at least $30?!)
I think I prefer Faceboard to Facebook!
Honey, I am so down with my 1923 Underwood No. 3.
You are a tough, feisty Appalachian woman, you are, you are. I wouldn’t give up computerized word processing for anything.
Ha! And YET, here I am on the computer replying to your reply. Ironic, no? 😉
I’m gonna clear the decks in a bit and bind a book. Wish me luck. If I succeed, onto the blog it goes.
Bookbinding, huh? Hmmm. You’re one of them crafty sorts, ain’t ya? <—connie one-eye-peers at Janis
