A Hen's Carpenterish Sides

Necessity is the mother of invention - very true!!

Made from a free IKEA cardboard plate & mug holder. The rods holding the threads are my retired paint brushes which have greyed too much for future use =)

i had to make this because i was very tired of always spending time untangling all my threads when i sat down to stitch. now i can jus carry my mobile thread holder wherever i sit and pull how much thread i want to use =D

A Zebra and A Hen

Once upon a time there was a zebra and a hen (they still are, but fairy tales are always told in past tense). They were both very, very lazy. And both were also somewhat ambitious and passionate. Being both lazy and ambitious is an excruciatingly painful experience for a person. And then when you add being passionate into the mix, one or the other has to win. So the battle between their lazy nature, and their ambitious nature began...with a passion. The result of this battle is still not known, but both the zebra and the hen have become quite aware of the battle, and have decided to test themselves.

Every 15 days they must achieve an achievement--which in this case comes in the shape of their art. The hen likes to doodle, and the zebra enjoys stretching the truth. Each must produce a piece of art--however inartistic--every two weeks. And what if they don't? Well laziness has won the battle, that's what.
