I don't need any more books. I haven't had time to do much tatting/knitting/crocheting/CQing/reading, but Elegant Stitches was recommended to me, and the other two were recommended by Amazon. And so, I ordered them... just because.
Hi Diane! I hope you like them! You've got my brain buzzing with ideas after seeing your CQ block, so I have been looking at Elegant Stitches again this week. I have plans for a tatted coaster which involve a bit of embroidery. I hope that you are able to free up some "me" time very soon! :) Ann
Nice! I love using the excuse 'just because' to justify buying something. And there's nothing wrong with expanding your library. You can never have too many books, no matter what anyone else tells ya!
Gosh, all of these ladies are smart! I agree with everything they say so that would make me smart too, right? I have a good library of quilting, knitting, crocheting, tatting and sewing books as well as romance, medical, fiction and non-fiction, etc. You get the picture...I love to read and I enjoy my books. I don't even have to "do" anything out of them to get enjoyment out of them. My tatting, quilting, sewing, knitting or whatever else I do with them is a bonus...I like the phrase, "Just because." I think I'll use that when somebody says, you're buying another book???? Hugs, Linda
Hi Diane! I have Elegant Stitches and The Crazy Quilt Handbook. Both are very good! You'll have fun reading these, and I'm sure you'll get even more inspired by all you see! Hugs, Paulette
I have a copy of Elegant Stitches or at least I did have a copy.

ReplyDeleteI think "just because" is a wonderful reason buy something. Good on you.
