Purple Ink Sample Ramble & Selection

In this (long) video I ramble a lot while I look at all of the Col-O-ring swatches from 43 purple ink samples I recently added to the Ink Sample Inventory list. My purpose was to choose 25 for my shell box on my desk (to go in my purple box) and also to choose 2 for inking up in April 2020 which is just a few days away as I upload this video! [NOTE: this probably should have been a livestream ... but I wasn't quite able to work without interruption today so I just taped the ramble!]
At the end of the video I show how to fold and prep a handkerchief to be used as an emergency/washable face mask using traveler's notebook elastic. You can even insert some extra protective material or a washcloth into it if you need to. I'm also sewing some masks but not everyone has a machine and I think this trick deserves to be shown as much as possible. It's not my idea nor is it a replacement for a "real" medical mask but at this point we may encounter situations where something is better than nothing so I wanted to share. (see photo on community tab).
The next ink categories I sort thru are not as large as purple so it will much more manageable - I'll be back with more on those categories soon. There are still some inks I want to review eventually and this inventory project has given me some good data:

NOTE: I'm still inputting inks - it's a work in progress!!!!
