You know you've got it bad when .......

You are shopping for Mother's Day stuff, and you start buying hankies to cut them up:

I have been looking at a few corners I have on nice hankies, and thinking "I wonder, if I cut them off and re-hem, can I still use them as hankies???"

It is just I am slowly collecting in purple, green and white. Believe me. I have got a lot of purple, a lot of green, and a lot of white. But not a lot of the three. Except a wonderful set of silk cigarette card reproductions, that I want to use in something one day. And I do like Purple, Green and White (the Suffragette Colours). And I would like to revisit this block some time:

That one I was working only with stranded cotton and crochet cotton, to try and make the stitches speak for themselves.

Anyways - I have been and bought myself a purple top this morning - to go with a beautiful purple scarf I have been sent by a Sister Blogger.

I love it, and was sitting up in bed, for just a little while, last night and sewing with it on. Must get myself a purple nightie next!
