This recent Dilbert strip definitely rang a bell …
I don’t order stuff every day, but when I do, I rarely recall what I’ve ordered when the package arrives.
It’s like Christmas all year long.
A recent gift to self was a sweet little book about collecting rocks … or pebbles as the UK folks call them …
I was delighted to find that a bit of Deb Lacativa Fat Baggies cloth had floated to the top of my scrap basket, last used years ago for the Moon Myth project (which is still not stitched together) …
I also found the remaining bit of Inktense paintbrush rag to be simpatico (yep, that’s how it’s spelled) …
And note to Nancy: the author and illustrator of this book are inveterate collectors who bring their pebbles home 😉
I'm Going to Texas (version 2.0) 
I so get this! Packages are starting to arrive in a more timely manner, too. I ordered some books and new dyes on Tuesday and they are already here!! Not quite enough time for me to forget, still…

Haha, I’m the opposite…I wait til something has arrived before another order. It helps me keep track and there’s precious little ordering anyway these days, so easier to remember 😉
I love how perfectly the cloth reflect the book! And no promise I won’t change my mind and bring home a treasure!

I love the surprise online ordering provides – and I bet those pebble collectors have pockets in their clothes!

I’ve been thinking of your “pockets are political” while reading about a pocket-making workshop on Instagram …
