not a swap .. not a challenge .. jus' for the fun of it .. anyone want to all make a 'make-do'?
we could take turns 'talking' each other through a 'make-do'.
i'll be happy to start with a 'colonial pyn-wheel' .. let me know if you are interested .. and i'll pull together some info.
xo, frannie

gurlz .. i can 'talk you through it' .. or .. i can send each of you a 'pattern' .. with NO directions .. those i will post here on the forum.
soooooooo .. ef'fen you wanna' play .. you can either just check the dimensions i give (and you truly can upsize or downsize) your 'pyn wheel' .. you can choose to use a new or vintage fabric .. they are soooooooooo EASY and soooooooooo cute! (i have a friend who sells these little teensies (with vintage fabric) for between $15 and $25 .. which will AMAZE you when you see how simple they are to do.
it 'seeeeeeeeeems' to me that i might have actually given these instructions on here before (or perhaps it was to my 'true friends' e-mail list????) but anyhoo .. we have enuff new gurlfrenz .. that it would be fun to do a 'do-over'. you TRULY don't need a pattern .. but if you are feelin' intimidated about making a CIRCLE .. HA! use the bottom of a drinking glass! well, if you trooooly need a pattern .. jus' send me a self-addressed, stamped envelope!
will start this class in a week or two. ohhhh .. i love doin' things like this!! even more so 'in person' .. wish you could all come to freedom valley farm for an 'in-person'.
IF all is well with my daughter kristen (still don't know .. she has to have a biopsy done .. and the jury is out on her honey and they have not yet announced a wedding date .. but she says it will be SPRINGTIME .. and i will head for delaware_ .. HOWEVER .. i was thinking today .. that 'if' all goes well . .i jus' might get a last-minute plane ticket for MOSCOW and join you kids. (i haven't had or taken the time to make 'dolly kits' ..
i could surely make some little colonial pyn wheel kits up for this little project if i can make it end of april .. beginning of may .. but it will indeed be a last-minute thingie! (and it takes less than an HOUR to complete one!
AND .. i'll just stay in a hotel in moscow .. and rent a car .. sooo .. if any of the gurlfrenz need a ride to town during the weekend .. i'll play chaueffeur .. but again .. this is all 'up in the air' right now.

sherri .. for the purposes here .. it's a little sewie .. usually to hold needles and/or pins. the colonial one is a 'circle wheel' where the pins ae inserted between two halves and are out of sight .. no sharp points to stick you!
a 'make-do' is really just about anything that has been 're-purposed' to 'make-do' for a purpose.

I'm in the last stages of "wedding-at-my-house-with-200-guests-in-10-days"
but should be in recovery phase in 11 days.  Can I still play???
