5.8.10

I do not sew - I leave that to my husband. But I did manage to jam the sewing machine a million times to make these two items: something to hold my pens, and something to hold my makeup brushes. Tada. Don't look too closely...there aren't very many straight lines :S

  1. Great project idea! I sew, but not well and like to say my sewing projects are "folk art" which somehow makes the crooked lines alright!

  4. I didn't know that Lucas sewed. Wow! Non-straight lines show that they are made by hand with love. That's what I tell myself :)

  5. Very useful, if not perfectly straight. Just give those crooked lines some deeper artistic meaning - like we know where we're trying to go, but life takes us down a different path.

  8. straight lines are not for artists.
    true artists make their own lines, just like you have done.
    lovely fabric, too.
