You Can Do It The Easy Way Or The Hard Way

---

This old gal…

Has been bitten by the bug…the crafting bug…all this browsing and shopping is planting some creative seeds…

The Cowcat scarf could be a project…a craft project…make it into a pillow…frame it for wall decor…and then there’s that mushroom iron-on transfer…can mushroom lover me ignore that sign?…

And let’s not forget to mention the cowgirl…not gonna lie, they have a vibe…a cool vibe…a vibe not often seen on the streets of Iowa…

Loose, flowing jumpers, adorned with doilies and needlework, created with flower sack fabric reminiscent of that dress sewer me made back in the 90s…

Could crafty me cross stitch on a jumper?…attach those cross stitch TO a jumper?…did that once to overalls but those not flowy enough…

And let’s not get started with the sparkle…the shine…the rodeo gal glitz…bought a pair of pants a few years back…fun, shiny Texas jeans but now wonder, hmmm, those thrift store Wranglers need hemming…maybe bling them up a bit along they way…

Cuz why not?…all an old gal needs is a vision…and skill…and time…and skill…and supplies…and skill…and energy…and skill, skill, and more skill…

Or she could go the other route…all those ads for cute jumpers on the Internet route…

Because like that husband of mine always says…you can do things the easy way or the hard way…but what’s to say that a sly, crafty woman…couldn’t maybe do both…
​
And that husband of mine…agrees…
