Patience, that virtue thingy
My level of patience is, you know, declining.
I am making a stuffed toy. It is a present for someone. This toy is taking a crazy amount of time because there are so many tiny little picky details. Did I mention the details are tiny? And there are a lot of them?
I have made legs and arms. Body, head. Hat. Felt cutouts. Eyes, nose. Sewn bits. STRIPES.
But I just realized that (1) the holes in the top of the arms and legs need to be big enough to put stuffing in. And also that (2) I haven’t made ears. And (3) this animal has a TAIL and I don’t have one of those yet either.
I may finish this toy in 2009. I’m not sure. I’ll have to get back to you on that.
Oh, and I seem to have lost the other toy I’ve been waiting months to put a face on. I suspect the cat stole it. Or at least, she’s a convenient culprit and she can’t talk, so she can’t dispute my efforts to blame her.
