My First Flogger

Every time I show off the toys that I've made I always get really excited when showing them off. If they're brought out in a random order, the first one out of the bag is always my first.
"That's the first flogger I made!"
"Really? You made this? That's so neat!"

Usually the one that was just pulled out of the bag is the pink and black one that Major taught me how to make, and did one of the knots for me. It is legitimately the first flogger I made "right." The next flogger out of the bag is the brown one, the first flogger I ever made out of leather. It only has one knot on the handle. And then they pull out the small denim flogger that I made for my Master. It's light, the handle isn't stiff because it has no core, but it's the first flogger I ever made, and we both love it. And then of course, they pull several finger floggers out of the toy bag. The first finger floggers I ever made, the first finger floggers I made that I feel confident in, the first ones I made for myself. Never to be pulled out of the toybag again are the first floggers I made on my own without help, they went to the LHC auction, and both went to different people. I made them with two matching pieces of brown leather, nice thick stuff that I really liked, but I did the handles different, so the weight wasn't the same in the pair. Did I mention that the first blush-flogger I made is in my toybag? It's pink. The first multi-colored one I ever made was my Master's but it also went to LHC, and came back home with Kat, a friend of mine. She didn't realize I'd made it when she traded eyelashes for it at Ziggy's corner. I have so many ideas and new things I want to try. I know that when people go through my toybag they get tired of hearing "that's the first --- flogger I made" and sometimes I try to stifle myself, but I really hope that I keep doing new things, and learning more and more every time I make something new, so that every flogger I make is my first something.
