Thanks Peggy! Yours are awesome too! Today was definitely a, "coffee is the only reason I'm getting out of bed" day (awkward since I have to work!).

Hey CJ...I could probably use another box of scraps pretty soon. Keep me in mind!

Today I worked on my own Bubble-Gum Machine, started a Broomstick-Lace Baby Blanket, took down
too ratty-tatty roller shades in this Rental we live in, and cut the ratty parts off and glued
the stick-back into the bottom of the shade, and wall-la...good as new. And shortened my husbands
office curtains. The landlady can't put any money into her properties at the moment because she
is going through a nasty divorce and everything is frozen by order of the Court. I just couldn't
take looking at those Shades another minute. Tacky! ~ I have found that having no teeth does not
keep you from being a busy little beaver. LOL

Live Loved,
peggy

I'll be doing the same as I always do....crafting away at anything and everything:

-decoupaging empty tea bag boxes
-crocheting several dishcloths, bookmarks, pot holders, blankets
-knitting my block blanket
-making more wallpaper note cards
-sewing a bit
-decoupaging a few more clipboards
-and thinking about my tatted hankie that I started last year
.............and organizing the closet where it all my supplies get stored

My garden mushrooms (using metal mixing bowls) are all set for spring gardening. I'm so glad I started early this year.

Just finished crocheted dishclothes and dish towels for my dd new apartment. Finished crocheted throw for my hubby. Now trying to decide if I want to add a border/ruffle on the edges.
Going to on work on dd Katy's crocheted blanket today. Tomorrow I'll work on painting a few wood pieces I have brought at JoAnn's on clearance.
