I also crossed a project off my list because I realized I really didn't have to do it. The project involved sorting through my husband's bank and credit card statements and putting his business expenses on a spreadsheet so that taxes are easier. I am way behind on this project, and it doesn't matter because he is no longer working. YIPPEE!!!

Lol Debbie, I’m afraid I have 8 out of 8, no make that 7/8. My “pig’s” have been disbursed to storage bins.

Almost 40% of my projects are NESTY. I should get rid of some of those.

I love that list of acronyms, Debbie. I am sure I have several projects in each one of those categories.
Today I finished the 3 "cut out but not finished" fabric wall pockets on my PhD list and 2 of the Kitchen towel boas. I have about 7-10 more boas to make to complete the kitchen towels I have for this project; as I finish more I will post pictures. I'm currently mostly making things that I can sell at my booth at the Womens Conference at our church in late April - before I make some of the other things. Let's see how long I can do that without caving. LOL! I know I'll squeeze in some new and other PhD projects at some point.
 
I also finished 2 draft Dodger "fat snakes" (new projects not on my PhD list), at the request of my husband, to put at the front door and the patio double door to alleviate the drafts coming in at those points.

I feel the same Debbie, lol. I am working on the first project on my list, but it’s slow going.

I love the acronyms Debbie. I am pretty sure all my stuff is categorized as STABLE lol!
Linda, those turned out great. The boa fabric is cute.
Really cute bags Karen!
I agree Debbie. I am still working on my 2 large projects so I feel like I am not accomplishing much. Especially since I haven't had that much time to work on them.

Crafting crafting crafting, what to do first. lol I did get a few things ready for the quilter, 3 table toppers. I have to get to town to get quilt backing and batting for the quilt. Hopefully when it is on sale. The shopping bags are great Karen. Keep up the good work everyone and have fun in the process.

Today I went "off list" - as usual. We are having a block exchange in my quilt group, and Thursday we have to sign up. I made 3 samples of my block today - now to write the instructions for those who are participating. LOL! My block is a selvage spider web block. Here are 2 of the 3 I made.

I finished the rug made of t-shirt yarn.
I will now be starting to work on a beaded banner kit. It has an amaryllis on it, and is large enough to hang on a door.
1) Make a rug out of t-shirt yarn and process the t-shirts when I need more yarn. **** DONE ****
2) Finish mending Lowell's winter coat - all that is left is the lining and I need to repair it so that it doesn't rip out.
3) Finish a granny square cardigan - all the squares are made. I have to make the sleeves and the back and then sew it together.

I like your rug, Marie. Please tape it down. I have a knitted rug I made and it is super slippery on the floor. It is the cat's rug now, because I almost slipped and fell more than once.

Marie, a rug made out of tshirt yarn, pretty cool. they do make the anti slip liners you put underneath the rugs, they work pretty good. I just don't remember what it is called. The salvage block is neat too Linda. I have a small basket started of salvage. Vanessa hope your dogs like your new cover soon!!. Looks great.

Vanessa, your dog bed is cute. Hopefully they come around soon.
Linda, your blocks are really neat looking. I love the design.
Nice rug Marie. It's neat to think it came from t-shirts.
