Oppryddingsprosjekt - Clean up project


Jeg har en alvorlig opprydding på arbeidsrommet. Det har vært høyst påkrevet lenge, men jeg har ikke hatt ork til å gå løs på det. Nå er jeg imidlertid i gang, og når jeg først rydder, da skjer det ned til minste detalj.

Noe av det som dukket opp var denne hekla lappen. Den lå i en pose med flere likesinnede, men det var ikke mange nok til at det kunne bli et teppe. Den opprinnelige ideen var ei veske, men både idé og lyst er for lengst borte. Hva kan man så bruke noe sånt til? Jeg lot lappene ligge i synsfeltet mens jeg satt og øvde tidligere i dag. Det er gjerne da de gode ideene kommer. Innimellom skalaer og teknikkøvelser kikket jeg bort på dem, og etter hvert fant jeg ut hva jeg skulle gjøre.

I'm having a major clean up in my studio. It has been mandatory for quite a long time, but I haven't had the guts to start on it. Now it's rolling, and when I have started, I'm doing it to the tiniest detail.

Some of the stuff that turned up was this crocheted square. It was found in a bag with several others, but there weren't enough of them to make something large. The original idea was a bag, but both idea and will to finisih it was gone several years ago. What could I use this for? I left the squares lying in sight when I practiced today. The good ideas usually comes then. Between scales and technical studies I glanced at them, and after a while I knew what to do.

Jeg synes dette ble ganske så bra. Inni hårspenna har jeg brukt veskevatt, men den er ikke stiv nok. Papp har jeg heller ikke lyst til å bruke, så hvis noen har forslag på noe som holder fasongen, og samtidig enkelt nok å klippe i, kom gjerne med det!

I think this turned out quite okay. Inside the hairclip I've used batting for bags, but that isn't firm enough. I do not want to use cardboard either, so if anyone can suggest something that is firm enough and also is easy to cut, please let me know!

    1. Thanks Astri! I have some single coloured as well which I will do the same with. The problem is what to put inside.

      Likeness - haha! :-)

  2. how about plastic canvas... it's flexible and holds it's shape and you can cut it easily into any shape you need...
