I'm at it again....on several things, missing days at a time of comingin here to MyLot for one.
I'm super busy as usual--won't bore you too much with that.
I decided to be brave and enter something in to the fair. I went in with the intent of entering my selvage toothbrush rug in the creative uses of selvage section. I found that was a one time thing because they didn't have many entries. So, the rug is now in the rug category under made with recycled materials.
I decided to also go ahead and enter the contest of a wall hanging that my quilt guild sponsors. They have been saying at our meetings that they really need more entries.
Once home I got to looking through the papers and decided to enter the table runner that I put in my photo today too. I know I will get notes from the judges on things such as the fact that not all my sewing lines are straight, but hey, it's an entry.
I then decided to go ahead and also put down to enter in the holiday section this table runner made with yo-yo's that I am making for this special order.
So, I have 2 weeks to get the wall hanging done as well as the yo-yo table runner. I figured that this might just be the motivation I really need to get this ladies order done. I have the yo-yo's made, but just not picked it up today to start putting together the 40x19 table runner.
I plan to do posts to show all of the items as I am in and out of here.
What are you up to....anything crafty?

Not too crafty right at this moment, other than some crochet for class and for myself. I have always liked that granny square runner. It appeals to my love of color.

Good luck, I hope you do well. No. I haven't had time to do anything crafty at all this summer. That is a very pretty table runner.

I have a month to get ready for our local fair. I'm getting things ready. Good luck with your entries.

I'm working on some crafts for Christmas gifts, mostly hats and scarves.
I'd love to hear how you did at the fair!
