Even though I didn't sign up for Chooky Blues SAL, I did get caught up in the thread catcher frenzy. I even ordered the books just in case things catch my eye, but failure to finish a project around here is always an option and I don't think I could handle being dumped.
So, my first thread catcher is not really a thread catcher--it is for my sweet DH and I believe it will be call a crud catcher.
And I think it fits nicely into the airplane creating area.
I made two more--one for me and one for my mom and realized when I was working on my mom's that it would be nice to have a thread catcher because I didn't like the top stitching and had to do some serious unpicking.
And no--that is not a big old mess back in the background, it is perfectly organized piles of projects that I need to get busy on. Now I just need to perfectly organize them into a tub or something. I'll get there.
It is a super dreary day out there and DH is feeling yucky, so it maybe a good day to get a move on with the pile.
Hope you are having a creative and fun weekend.
