Log Cabin Crochet (and a pie)
11th January 2010
You know when your doing something, then you get an idea you just have to try right away?
I was having a productive day, working on my next submission for Beads and Beyond magazine and it was going well, then I ran out of thread for the last bit. Can I get any more – can I ******. Admitidly it was old, but for heavens sake, why do maderia have to regually change their codes and colours? So I got out my wool to just wollow in the beauty of the colours (everyone does that, don’t they?).
As I was making the pie for tea, filling was left over coq au vin from last night (makes the best pie, really rich and tasty) I started mentally putting together colours, then using the edge of the rolling pin to nudge them in groups, then I washed my hands and the pie got a bit side tracked.
But how exciting is that little bit of crochet!!
ha, you don’t even know how similar we are! I get this feeling very often and my mum always says first finish one thing and then start on another… but when I am doing other things I get best ideas and have to try them straight away!

Looking good. (Pie and crochet!) Inspiration is such a fickle beast you MUST deal with it whenever it strikes. Why finish the thing that you know where its going. That can be finished anytime
Of course its easy to say that with my back to all my WIPs!!
I knew I was in good company!
