It was a day of running around this morning. I needed to tie up some of my father-in-law’s tax return info and get to the post office to have everything mailed with today’s post mark on it. Nothing like waiting until the last minute! While out driving, I got a message from my car that the head light was out. I thought I had a bulb in our garage at home, but it was a spare for my husband’s truck, so back out to the auto parts store and home to change out the bulb. Before the day got completely away from me I thought I’d sit down and work on some more of the cat faces.
By the time I reached the sixth one, I was starting to think that I might be OK with having different faces on them. None of them were turning out the same anyway. A comment on yesterday’s post suggesting the same thing sealed it for me. No two cats look exactly alike anyway. After finishing the last one, I thought I might try seaming two of them together to see how that looked. And then I finished a row. And then went on to join the squares in the second and third rows. And having gotten that far, I figured I would sew the rows together. And so the top is put together. And nothing else in my house got done.
I can find a lot of ways to put things off, but getting caught up in something crafty is by far my favorite.
But this is such a good use of time!! Adorable 🙂
Perhaps the best use of time!
You know the saying “life’s too short for housework”. Can’t disagree with that!
Any excuse to get out of housework. But I do particularly like this one!
It’s hard to stop when you’re so close to getting something done and when it’s turning out so well! I love the cat faces!
There’s something about seeing the end in sight that does make you want to keep going. That and thinking about the pile of laundry that needed to be folded…
I like that design, cute cats…crochet addiction lol
True addiction! I’m racing against the weather changing to be too hot to work with yarn.
