The Daisy Clock That Grew On My Wall

It's the electric clock of my childhood kitchen, where its cord was tucked behind it out of sight.  But in my little workroom, there was nowhere to hide the cord.

So I hid it with a patchwork tube, sewn together at 11pm one night in a very happy burst of creativity.  It's the fastest sewing ever, with raw seams and purple thread.



I love it.  It makes me happy.  Daisies have always been special to me.


My little room is coming along nicely.  I did my first sewing in this space yesterday, Mother's Day.  Lovely.

  2. Very, very creative! I hate cords hanging down too, I also hate replacing batteries, but you took care of both of those problems.
