The waaaaaaiting is the hardest part

Anticipation…

Anticipaaaaaaation is … making me wait.

It’s keeping me waaaaaaaaaiiiting.

I’m going to try to let these 15 scarves passively cook in the sun and rest for a whole month before unbundling this time, to see just how much more of the natural plant color and texture might be absorbed by the cloth.

Happy Birthday Boo Boo!

Happy Birthday to my little brown-butted Emma girl – she is 7 years old today!  She brings so much joy and laughter to our lives, I am most thankful she picked me to rescue almost 7 years ago.

I’ll share results of the bundles, when they are done resting, all in good time.  (Props to Tom Petty and Carly Simon.)

  • Your little bundles remind me of cocoons!
    All lined up ready to hatch into something gorgeous.

      Hi Nanci! Cool thought…they do kinda have that mystique about them, ready to hatch, I like that.

  • If you insist on waiting a long time for these wonderful bundles I bet the birthday girl will be happy to rescue you from the anticipation anxieties and have you play with her non stpo!

      Ha Ginny, you’re absolutely right about that! She is an “uber” retriever…her chessie/lab mix genes have a little something to do with that. She is very attracted to the little bundles as well, and if the opportunity arises, I’ll find them carried off into the yard 🙂

  • Dear Ayn,
    Sometimes it could be the smell that’s the hardest part!
    Thanks for moving the one in the pot off the deck.
    Love,
    Babsy

  • ah those bundles…they are everywhere…and such fun.
