Monday...1st day of school...and design wall too
so...up until this very day, when my kids went off to school...I did a happy dance. Today, I'm feeling a bit more...ambivalent. My youngest kiddo, walked out the door ( he did come back and give me a hug), marched across the street..and got a ride with the neighbor. His 1st day of high school. My neighbor was able to snap a picture of him...I will see if she will e-mail it to me...
I actually did alot of sewing this week, just not much to show ON the design wall
Here are 4 of the Christmas tree skirt sections sewn together. most of the colors are true..except that PINK. It is showing too...bubble gummy! It is closer to hot pink. There are 10 sections...so I still have a ways to go..but it will not take me too long.
THIS is what sidetracked me! I'm sorting strings, strips, little scraps and pieces that have already been pieced and are ready for more scraps...or SOMETHING. I think there is an orphan quilt..or maybe a kitchen sink quilt. I may need to keep my eye out for fabric with a kitchen sink it it! lolol
Does anyone have any suggestions for organizing ...non quilty supplies? I keep stacking up plastic boxes of ..well..STUFF! plastic tubing...hardware...velcro...you name it! I am thinking I will start a small notebook..and when I find a home for whatever it is, I wil enter it in there. That way, I won't spin my wheels LOOKING for it!
Be sure to march over to Judy's and see what is being worked on! My fav part of Mondays!

let me know the trick when you figure it out.
My oldest child starts high school tomorrow. She's excited... and nervous.
I'm glad that they'll all be back in school by next week for a number of reasons, but life just goes back to crazy when they do.
