Jake lost his dice bag.
What?
From high school, and college. Dice bag. As in "I play roleplaying games that require dice of multiple shapes and sides".
I blame the girls. They've started playing a cute little game called Fuzzy Heroes and the dice bag disappeared.
It is our 15th wedding anniversary. The theme is "crystal" and I decided dice fit the bill. I picked up a variety of dice online and then made a bag for him.
The first bag was drawstring, lined, made of the same fabric as the ottoman cover I made earlier this year. I liked it. It was cute. But it didn't pull all the way shut. Fail.
So I went into my stash and found a doubleknit skirt that my sister gave me for the fabric (I made her a doubleknit quilt last Christmas). I cut it, salvaged the zipper, and made a sort of pencil case-ish bag that zips shut. It's red and white striped. Pretty ugly because the lines are nothing like straight. It is, in fact, entirely made of skew lines. But the dice go in and it's small enough to stash in a drawer where it will belong: the checks, 9 volt battery, and dice drawer. Of course.
Oh, no! Not the dice bag with dice accumulated over the years! I'm sure it will turn up again -- especially since you've made another one and bought more dice. :)
ReplyDeleteha! i found the Husband's dice bag in the predictable place: the Girl's desk drawer, full of miniature Breyer horses.
