I've posted these before but I was appreciating them again in the early morning sunlight today.

@dillyd @lydiaschoch I (re)learned how to crochet with books and Youtube.
The basic building block of getting a loop through a loop (once or more) gives an infinite world of possibilities. The hardest part is spending enough time to get regularity. I like #crochet@Klara @lydiaschoch
Those are beautiful. I'd like to find somebody to teach me in-person. I really hate watching videos -
@dillyd Those are beautiful!
And such a great connection to your gggmas!@colo_lee you're good. Your edit appeared as I was favoriting your reply.

@dillyd
Just think of all the work that went into those! Wonderful -

@Klara @lydiaschoch good idea, I'll look around

@dillyd It's a lot of great greats!

@dillyd both are beautiful. A lot of love went into those stitches. I've done both quilting & crochet to feel closer to ancestors

@dillyd there's a technical term for this but I can't remember it. (You get the same effect if you /say/ the same word too many times in a row.)
@transitionalaspect @dillyd semantic satiation.

@dillyd we put my wife's great grandmother's quilts on a cool quilt ladder next to one on display on the wall. We rotate every once in a while.

That's an excellent idea. I am running out of walls and I do have more in storage bins. -

@transitionalaspect @dillyd that doesn't only work in semantics: look at a person's nose for an extended time and you will notice what a grotesque organ that is ^^

@transitionalaspect sometimes it helps, when a person tries to exert some kind of dominance you don't think they (should) have
