Things I want to do, places I want to see, books I want to read, music I want to listen to (and by the way, my latest music crush is The Magnetic Fields, specifically their newest album Realism - thanks, NPR for turning me onto them!), garments I want to knit (and occasionally sew), things I want to bead, materials I want to work with, recipes to try, ingredients to taste - you get the picture.
So anything which makes my head spin faster is A Good Thing.
Last night, being caught up (or caught up enough) with class proposals, samples and instructions, I finally made Lori's bracelet which she'd been asking for since possibly as long ago as November, ready for knitting tonight. It's like this one in my Etsy shop, but she needed the size to change slightly.
Just because I wasn't in the mood for finishing something else on my Duty List, something I'd already started, I decided to make a pair of matching earrings instead, something simple. So I made a square of peyote stitch, zipped it up to form a tube, and decided it wasn't done and needed more beads, and came up with these little tubes each with three wings or flanges.
Kinda cute.
Match the bracelet.
Then today at work, where I do in fact have some few small tasks, so it's not as though I'm desperately searching for things to do with my head, I had ideas doing gymnastic in there. All from those barely-better-than-boring little earrings. Other kinds of flanges, ways to combine them, extend them, shape them, distort them.
IT'S SO COOL WHEN MY HEAD DOES THAT!
