zippery doo da!

The obsession with zippers continues. Check out the bouquet of zips that arrived the other day!

I will not hoard the zippers or the webbing. I will not hoard the zippers or the webbing.
Hey, thanks for all the advice on the glasses. I took them back today. I suppose I should have mentioned that I have a bit of a glasses curse. Every time I get new glasses, I have some sort of problem (it’s probably psychological). Anyway, these new frames sit a bit lower on my face than would be ideal, so I had a sneaking suspicion they weren’t centered. Well, they weren’t! I don’t know why opticians don’t first adjust the glasses to your head then mark the pupil position with a felt pen. What is with the big Viewmaster-like pupil distance measuring contraption? And they don’t adjust the glasses until afterwards! That seems wrong. I want some ice cream now. Heh.

    I am also collecting zippers but still a little new to “putting zippers on a bag”. But I want to make more “wristlets” so we’ll keep trying and learning. What are you going to make Mariko? L

    And oh!, I’ve only found boring black webbing. Have you found 2″ webbing in pretty colors? L

    Hey did I miss something, are you opening up a Mariko-style sweatshop and making bags for a living? That’s alot of zippers…Of course it’s just enough for one of thos Jacko zipper jackets. You know they’ll come back sometime.
