Craft Club flag

What fun it was to make this flag. It is composed of red, white and blue form core. A pair of scissors, paper punch ruler, paper clips, bells and some glue and that's it! The small rod on top can be made from bamboo sticks that you use on the grill - after it was finished I noticed that the long stripes and the short stripes are uneven - we looked at the picture from the magazine and theirs was uneven too - how funny. I could have fixed it, but I sort of like it the way it is.

Keeping off the roads and alley

One of the gals in our quilt workshop showed us how to crochet a 'curly' scarf and we all loved trying it out. Using different yards and needles really made a big difference on how they turned out.

Yesterday we worked on making greeting cards at Craft Club - lots of fun. Some of the gals have great ideas and do some swell stuff - mine was sort of vanilla.

Some of my latest sewing projects

I am shocked to see how long it has been since I accessed my blog - I could blame it on my knee giving out, but that hasn't really slowed down my sewing projects.

I am posting a photo of my quilted tote bag with double lace around the top, also a 'messenger' type bag that can also serve as a throw pillow cover (it is 13" X 13"), and the staw hat wreathy that I just made yesterday.

Log Cabin Quilt

My son came by this afternoon and straightened up my computer and all the USB hubs - I had dropped them on the floor under the desk and couldn't reach anything. Sure glad I have so many smart sons (and a smart daughter too).

I am finally able to upload pictures of my Log Cabin quilt.

First Wall Hanging for Christmas 2010

This is the first wall hanging that I have made for Christmas 2010 - I like it so much, I might make more than one. It is also the first time that I have done binding around the outside of a quilt -not perfect, but interesting and I can only get better (I hope!)

Picture of some of the family

This picture was taken on Valentine's Day (2010) in Lake Havasu City, Arizona. I'm seated in red and my twin is in blue.

Our latest Craft Club item - what fun it was to make - we all had a lot of laughs -
