My Craft Update 8/11/09

I've been a busy bee on my crafting today....(and now typing this in twice because I tried to be slick and put in html code to break up paragraphs, but I guess that's a no go here) I really want to go to bed, but want to keep my promise to myself to post an update here daily. First, I hooked together all the material strips that I cut last night. They are now in a bag ready for sewing club next month to learn how to make the rugs. Second, I cut out the material to make 3 birthday bags for my 3 granddaughters this month. I used a Sesame Street sheet for the youngest. I used pillowcases for the other 2, one with Pocahontas and the other Hunchback of Notre Dame. I paid .25 for each at yard sales. Third, I used some of the rest of the Sesame Street sheet to cut out to make a simple baby quilt. Once I get to sewing it, it will take me no time at all to complete. Not sure what I will do with the rest of the sheet. Fourth, I took what was left of the pillowcases and cut it into strips. Now I have a start on making the quilt using the technique that I learned yesterday. Fifth, I worked on finishing up the dish scrubbie order for my friend. Just one more to make to complete her order. Finally, I got the quilt I just finished up in my blujay store. Whew!! It's almost midnight and I am going for some much needed sleep. Have a great night!
