So many beautiful things in here. I love to make things too, but lately my projects are leaning more towards Household Management. Trying to get organized- getting ready to move.

I love the bags and hangings. They are so colorful and pretty. I am making some aprons for a swap right now and to send to a friend. Also working on some small quilts for the local animal shelter for the animal cages.

Today I am going to tackle my scrap bin and ugly fabric. I have been reading Bonnie Hunter's blog and she has inspired me to use up my scraps. I have always loved scrappy quilt. So I am cutting fabric in strips - 1.5, 2, 2.5, and 3.5 inches. She also say's that even the "ugliest" or "why did I buy that fabric?" looks different when cut small. I do have some of the "why fabric" doesn't everyone? I guess that this could also go in the cleaning up section...LOL Barbara P.S. I love look at everyone's pictures!! Great job everyone!
Don't forget to laugh! |

I'm learning about junk art journaling and thinking about how I can use this type of thing in my daily devotional. It's cool that you can have writing and goodies stuck on the same page. Some people even sew on the pages! Maybe this will motivate me to actually write in the thing!

I have been wanting to make a yarn wreath for a long time. I finally got around to doing it.
I also embroidered this guest towel.

Just finished some cloth napkins for the kitchen. Working slowly on a Dear Jane quilt (a little at a time) and in the evenings embroidering some new dishtowels.

Isn't anyone sewing, crocheting, stitching? Or are we all in the garden? The last post was more than a month ago! Dianne in the Hudson Valley

Joanna...very cute Chenille Robe and Gown. The gown is my favorite. Nice Job!
I have been busy knitting washclothes, making different kinds of Scrubbies. I make two kinds of dish scrubbies
and then the puff ball...Bath/Body Scrubby.
I have also been hand stitching lots of Heart Shaped Yoyo's for a swap.
And like Dianne said...lots of gardening and enjoying the outdoors.
blessings,
peggy

I always sell two or three each week at the Farmers Market.
I have been busy sewing with no end in sight! LOL! Here are a couple of pictures of things I have recently made:
