Ever had a great idea?

One that gets you really excited?

I had one last night. I could see the finished product in my head, even knew exactly where I'd hang it once it was done and dusted.

I knew what I wanted but I wasn't quite sure how to go about it.

So the pencils came out.

Then I used a few paper models to get my head around it before I tried some prototypes.

Hmmm, no. Too bulky on the main fold lines.

Ahhhhmmm, another no. Why are there seams on the foldy-over parts?

Pfffffft.

Not even going to bother.

My sad, messy desk this morning.

But I haven't given up. The idea just needs some more marinating time.

Compromise needs to be made between my brain and my actual sewing abilities!
