Pins

Just to change things up a little bit, I spent some time mounting another doily. This time I'm not disguising the color because it's such a small section of the piece. I had actually intended to do more of them yesterday, but these tiny little pins are murder on my fingers. In fact, my fingertips are still a little tender this morning. They're call sequins pins and they're only a half an inch long. Hell, I think the heads of these are are narrow as my tatting needle, so pushing them in is like pushing this tip of that.

I did also read and knit as well. I think the knitting project should be wrapped up this weekend and then I'll have to decide on something new to do. I wish I could say that I'm in the mood to create something entirely new for the shop, but it continues to be so quiet there that I don't feel encouraged to add to it in any way. I know that's likely the wrong way to think about it, but when I sell nothing, I feel like making nothing, thus all the time spent making gifts instead. I guess I'll just cross my fingers yet again for something to give.
