Calling All Hands

This is another one of those linky stuff I thought up just now. I hope you are keen.

Anytime on Saturday, August 13, take a picture of your hand/s; spinning, knitting, weaving, baking, reading, holding your child's/grandchild's/long-time-love's hand/s, whatever. It doesn't have to be craft-related. Post one pic somewhere and send me a link or send one JPG to me. Also, give me a title or description of yourself; whatever best describe how you saw yourself as at the moment the photo was taken, i.e. "Mama, Yarn collector, Weaver, Neighborhood Weaving Teacher". (I just made that up; I'm not sure what how she sees herself nowadays.)

We make things with our hands: old hands, young hands, skinny hands, plump hands, smooth buffed hands, and scarred used hands. Let's celebrate that. (Or, is it "them"?)

Great idea! I'd love to be in, but I will be working at a show on Sunday. Can I cheat and take my picture on Thursday before I have to leave home (and camera)?

Yup, as long as we keep it a secret just between you and me!

Hi Meg - I remembered - but one day late, hope that's o.k.? See my blog.
