Hi Marit I had to grin over buying the wrong size box to store things in, that is totally something I would do. sounds like your handy man was worth every penny you spent on him too. and the new storage box sounds like it will be perfect 🙂 ~Stacy #30

I’m so jealous of your handyman Marit, my Hubby was the handiest of men and could turn his hand to anything but now due to ill health he’s unable to do those things anymore so I have to try and do most things myself..
Looking forward to seeing your new creation, your chronicle journal pages are marvellous. Thank you for sharing WOYWW..

I got it wrong, I thought it was the actual jeans you were stitching not a jacket – think it would be super cool to do both.
Not a clue what the crochet bag is going to look like so I await eagerly the picture of it, good luck, hope it all works for you.
Great desk and even greater Chronicles, especially the Japanese one – love that kind of thing.
Hugs until next week, Neet 5 xx

Hi Marit, I’ve done something like your crocheted box before and used starch to stiffen it. Loving your journal spreads, very Marit style I think. Have a lovely creative week and a happy woyww, Angela x11x

Love your Japanese themed pages, and your crochet basket sounds like a very good idea – it should be easy to make, you can do the same by draping a crochet mat over an upturned bowl and gluing it, it then dries in a bowl shape and looks great. Have fun and I look forward to seeing your finished project.

In reply to LLJ. I don't mind at all Jan, I am honered and enthusiastic that I could inspire you to dive into Sashiko and altered clothing too! I can't wait to see your results, have fun with all the stitching!

I hope you don’t mind that I’m copying you but my attempt won’t be anything as wonderful as your jacket!! I’m completely in love with Sashiko so a huge thank you for pointing me in the right direction. The crochet box sounds a great idea, you’ll have to show us how it turns out!
