Sowy Jo aka Needle

A new one hasn't been sighted in a long time and for minute there I thought no more of them would ever surface to a top of mind status. So I was somewhat taken aback by the sudden violent emerging of the new 'guest'. What am I talking about? My sweet Jo's latest alter ego Sowy Jo aka Needle.
This brand new alter ego is driven by the need to create anything that can be sown and preferably at any time during the day. It looks up creative websites, makes trips to the market for the best pieces of cotton or velvet, endlessly talks to anyone showing but a hint of the same passion AND will not allow any form of failure to finish it's business less than perfect.

My experience with this alter ego so far is that it definately belongs to the group of Class A alter ego's. It's mighty presence manages to shine through any other topic and it doesn't flinch to cut a good evening of watching films on the couch to ribbons. As you see I have now said the word 'ribbons', even seemingly insignificant words such as these bring on Needle and thus the sowing machine, Sowy Jo's magical apparatus that makes sure no calling friend or future husband can reach the real Jo, is called upon to start or continue a creative process. So should you ever encounter a 'Sowy', keep this in mind.

Getting Jo back from Needle is a tough job, but as you can see in the pictures Needle makes my Jo very happy. So I'm happy for it's existence despite it's sometimes annoying Class A status :-)
