like the the dress I altered for my wife for our wedding.
Yes - I saw her in her dress before the wedding.
Whew! I'm glad you didn't alter the dress without seeing her in it, and I know you didn't have your eyes closed lol.
She's so young yet and there is plenty of time for her to foster a love of many interests.I feel like @smallsteps will absolutely find some loves in her life. She is already so inquisitive and inventive, which are almost prerequisites to creativity. She plays piano which is a very creative endeavor.
Kudos to Grandma for knitting and not stopping! lol.. I spin yarn (a love of mine) but I find the knitting difficult (I prefer weaving).
You are in your element with writing, I feel. You are productive, eloquent, elaborate and not afraid to hit on sensitive topics. Highly creative. Come back to that pin and write a book or three.
Might have done a better job! :D
Like carpets and tapestries? Btw, I always think of Rumpelstiltskin when I hear about spinning yarn - or in Australia - telling a highly embellished story!
Or wound up with a wife with more holes than she was born with lol
I have woven a few Navajo rugs, which are essentially a tapestry for the floor. Mostly home goods and sometimes yardage for clothing. We have the same meaning for spinning a yarn here, aka tall tales. Rumpelstiltskin was a weird little thing, wasn't he? I used to love fairy tales when I was young...guess I still do!
Fun fact: Sleeping Beauty pricked her finger on her spindle and fell into a 100 year sleep. Sheep's wool from an infected animal carries the anthrax spores which would have put her down for sure lol. Not sure about the 100 years, though.
