Today I am taking a "ME" day (personal day) from work. So I am working on Herbert the gardening rabbit! Hoping to maybe get him done today! In my fav chair, mug o coffee on the mat,watching the birds, listening to classical music and stitching. If only all days could be like this! A gal can dream :) The only missing is Mr.Sunshine.

Way to go Bridge! Wish I could join you. Me days are very distant for me lately. I like your key ring if thread. That's a good idea.

Bridge,
I'm so glad you took a me day! Women too often neglect this vital need.
I can't wait to see Herbert the gardening rabbit when he is done.
Today i purchased material for the sweet seasons swap - i plan to start making something for the summer swap soon :-)
This past weekend i finished a baby quilt for a silent auction at our homeschool group. I love how soft it is and i really enjoyed working with pink - i have 4 boys and there''s not alot of pink around our house!
I also finished a small wall hanging to match my place mats. Any suggestions on how i should hang it? I thought of getting it framed, but that will be expensive i'm guessing.
I'm so thankful there is a place where we can celebrate our work!
Happy crafting/sewing :-)

Dena - beautiful baby quilt those colors are so cheerful! The hanging is gorgeous, maybe a dowel stained with beads on the ends . Herbert is complete tada...., Tomorrow I will start on his girlfriend, I haven't decided on her name yet.

Thanks Bridge and Christine.
Bridge, i can't believe how quickly you finished Herbert! My needle work always seems to go so slowly. He looks great! Can't wait to see his mate :-). How are you going to display them?
A dowel rod may be a good idea; thanks, i'll give it a try.

Dena, your baby blanket turned out so nice! I love the girl colors! I'm all boys here too. Wow, Bridge! You are fast. He turned out real nice. I bet you will have his girlfriend done soon.

Stayed home today feeling under the weather. I can't sit around even when not feeling well. A while back a co-worker brought in a scrubby she received from a friend. She wanted to know if I could look at it and reproduce it. I looked up how to make them on You Tube. I had bought the tule a while ago. My co-worker had asked me a few times if I had started and I had to say no. Well today seemed like a good time to start. Made all five of them today. They are very simple and fun to make.

Nice job, Rachel.
Nancy, your scrubbies turned out great! I like the bright colors and I bet your co-worker is going to be super excited! They are on my list of things to make someday.

Nancy, Nice scrubbies, hope you get to feeling better. I had forgotten these, I made them in the past and they do work really good.
Rachel, your sweater will be done before you know it. I like that color :)
I think Herbert's girlfriend will make her debut this evening, she just needs half a head. She told me her name last night while we worked on her basket, her name is Hannah.

Oh Bridge,
Mrs Rabbit turned out great! Cute thread ring too :-)
Yesterday i really stepped out of my comfort zone. Last year i bid on a 2 hour sewing lesson at our homeschool co-op's silent auction. I cashed it in yesterday and learned the beginnings of how to read a skirt pattern! The woman who donated her time worked for 3 hours with me and we barely got it half way done. Not sure i can finish it without her; its like learning a whole new language! Here's what i have got so far:
Buying skirts from the thrift store is alot easier! I should have started with an apron!!! I hope to finish it over the next few months...i might have to meet with her again and have her help me complete it - there's another silent auction coming up - maybe she will donate 2 more hours, at least!
Happy sewing :-))))

Bridge The bunnies are adorable. You are talented. I cannot cross stitch to save my soul, so I admire anyone who can do it!

Bridge, you are so fast! Hannah turned out fantastic. I have been trying to figure out what Spring project you have started next but I can't think! Is it flowers by chance?
I almost finished another pair of slippers over the weekend. All I have left is the tie and will be finishing them tonight and starting the next set. Somewhere in between finishing slippers I need to finish my Easter decorations before Easter comes.
