Yikes! Oops, I sure let time get away on me. I have sure been busy with ufo's and schoolwork, family life, play rehearsals, and striving to meet goals. Main projects that I have on the go are messenger bags made out of wool sweaters. I found a fabulous pattern online through another blogger. ocd: obsessive crafting disorder: Bag Lady Week- Messenger Bag Tutorial
I have modified the pattern many ways, to make a much smaller child's bag, and I turned the bag so it was wider than it was tall. Making the lining out of quilt blocks that never quite fit into a quilt has been a good way to use up scraps.
I also have been working on a totally scrappy quilt for an elderly friend of mine. She has dementia and I have made the quilt a little like an eye spy to keep her mind sharp and active while she visits with friends and stays cozy.
Also I'm on the hunt for a good iron. The normal everyday ones only seem to last about a year when you use them heavily like I do when I've got projects on the go. Any suggestions?
