Michelle -- The quilt is beautiful and how fun to be made by the family. An heirloom-to-be for sure. Love the runners; are the images from a panel?
Krista -- you will have a nice warm family. That's a lot of knot tying.

Everyone’s creations are beautiful, and I have always loved the double wedding ring quilts Michele.

Judith the runners were from a panel I guess. There was 24 of those Santa squares. I had made 8 gifts bags out of them also, for the grandkids Christmas ornaments this year. Must of been almost 2 yards of that material. Vanessa, that must of been a fun quilt show. Krista, those polar fleece throws are wonderful. Judith the butterfly quilt is a heirloom for sure.

My sister made a shawl out of polar fleece. You take a square of polar fleece, just as long as it is wide. I think she got a yard and a half? Cut the strips, fold the fleece into a triangle, and tie the strips together. She did a different method of tying the strips too. Not sure what it was. But she said it turned out really nice and warm. I am working on rugs for my kitchen. Weaving them with fat fluffy yarn. They turn out nice and soft and cushy. These are still on the loom, but almost done.

I crocheted a rug once with a fat, fluffy yarn, and I still have the rug, but it is so slippery that I am afraid to use it on the floor. It would be very easy to slip and fall.

Linda -- you can make a rug slip proof by putting some caulk on the back. I think you use the acrylic kind in the caulk gun.

Thanks, Judith. I will look that up, because right now it is super slippery.

Thank you. I finished one hat and now I am working on another. I still need to add rice to the rice bags and finish sewing them up. I am hoping to have everything done and wrapped by Friday.
