Distracted by love

Older brother and girlfriend have taken little brother climbing, but they are far too involved in each other, not belaying ropes for the little brother, who is just about holding on, maybe. And the cycle continues ... (Inspired by the purple lightbulb container, I've been meaning to use for a bit.) For violet Sunday in the Rainbow Challenge, using paperclips for the last time, which were inspired by the Dogwood 52 week challenge that this week is focusing on trash.

Three good things:
1. another lovely day and we got out for a walk this evening as well as the usual wander;
2. we worked out how to fit the trousers I was making (pink stars on indigo fabric) so they might work;
3. Useful articles in this month's sewing magazine for various ideas.

Thank you for looking and your amazing comments and faves. I prefer to look at your pictures rather than thank you individually below.
I never thought I could feel sympathy towards a paperclip!! Very creative, am sad their saga is ending:)

Poor little guy - he is just hanging around!

This series has been wonderful to follow.
We are partners in this week's get pushed challenge. How do you feel about playing with textures and patterns?

A fabulous one to end the series with. Pity that they will be put to rest, but you are sure to come up with something just as creative :-)

Beautiful tones in this lovely shot. I hope little brother held on until they gave him enough rope.

Remind me not to go abseiling with a pair of paperclips. Hope the little guys wasn't left hanging for too long :)

What a creative idea....rock climbing. And a nailbiter to go with it.
