So to celebrate I splashed out in John Lewis today and got some new pins and needles to ensure I am not left stranded at Retreat. Having had a fatal needle-pin collision whilst making the Ditty purses, I was left without any spares, and all my old flower-head pins are now rather wilted; I didn't want to be embarrassed by my headless bent stalks!
Also pictured is the clasp I bought on eBay that arrived yesterday for the framed purse class. I have to be honest, I prefer these bigger balls, and although there will be frames to buy there, I wanted to make sure I had a substantial pair!
I know I have some blog and email catching up to do, but it is almost time for the Homeland finale, so please excuse me whilst I pay attention elsewhere xxx
gotta love a substantial pair of balls ;-)
ReplyDeleteI'm all about big balls me.
ReplyDeleteNow about that quilt third from left on your blog header...
Don't think there will be a comment tonight that doesn't mention big balls! Can't wait to see the traffic you get from this post!!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteYou will have the best balls in framed purse class for sure!
ReplyDeleteLooks like those big balls came with a good sized frame!
ReplyDeletecan you refer us to the link to buy the big balled frame? I m sure you are getting many comments about these balls. Or maybe it's just me, laughing, as the mom of 4 boys.
ReplyDeleteVery restrained in JL's, !!!
ReplyDeletethanks for the reminder, I need to order my clasp for the class too.
ReplyDeleteBig balls aren't everything but they are very useful on purse frames ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love your big shiny balls!
ReplyDeleteOh yes and what a finale...I knew that was going to happen, they had to make it continue. Shame they haven't yet made the next season though, wonder how long that will take.... (nice bit of shopping)
