I loved the idea of garland with little scraps or samples you receive, What a great idea!

Has anyone made a tree skirt out of wool?

Mom's Christmas gift - Beginning stages

Thought I would share one picture of a work in progress before posting the winner.

I actually have most of my blocks all sewn together and steamed/pressed. I am loving the way it is looking so far. I hope she will like it.

What mom has been up to:

This is how mom's week started off. While laying peacfully and sound in their bed they woke to a tree branch going through their bedroom window and One of Their telephone poles was struck by lightening. It goes without saying that they had no telephone, No power and no internet ( even mom's ipad gets the worst wifi signal while at home).

Mom's house must be like the Bermuda triangle or something because anytime a storm hits it is their property that is always hit the worst. This particular storm that went through only effected about 1.5 square miles in their town.

I can't tell you what I had to do in order to bring her a morning cup of coffee as all roads surrounding their house were blocked off due to the down power lines. I didn't let that stop me though :)





WINNER WILL BE PICKED LATER THIS EVENING !

scrap buster

Before I post the winner later this evening I thought I would share a little something. My husband brought home a huge trash bag of sheets from the hospital a few days ago ( don't worry they are clean). I am in the process of making confetti out of them for pillow stuffing. I am planning to make pillow forms with a couple by simply sewing two squares together then stuffing them with the confetti and sewing them closed.
I thought I would share as it is a great way to get rid of old sheets, pillow cases, the husbands tacky shirts,dingy curtains ect.
You could also use your wool scraps and throw in a handful or two of lavender!
