Bags........................and Wool!

Here I am back again and still not feeling myself. This cold/flu has really taken its tole on me. Been way too long now. Even resorted to a Hot Toddy last night. mmmm. Not too bad so I might just have another tonight.

I have completed a couple of items thought.

The bags for the twins are done.

The one for my little Buddy is showing the front and the back.

 

I plan on using these for their Valentine gifts. The other Grands already got theirs

and they use them for school. Of course Little Miss "V" has already

been in a little trouble because she snuck some candy in hers and brought it to school.

That's too funny....gotta love her!

 

My friend JoyC brought me some wool pants that were her husbands

so I could cut them up and make winter bermudas out of them. The wool is perfect.

When I started cutting them apart I decided to make a "wrist let" for her

out of part of the leg. I think it came out well.

 

The pants were actually kind of cool. They had these buckles on the belt band

and they also had the buttons on the inside of the belt band for suspenders.

I loved that about them. Also they were Ralph Lauren.

I decided to use the buckle for the front and I also added the small "Polo"

buttons to the inside pocket.

It was a total surprise for her and she was so touched by it....she will

have such great memories when she carries it,

I so enjoyed doing that for her.

 

Today I went over to the open house at

www.campwool.com

as they moved location. I'm adding this flyer for you to see

and sure hope you can read it.

 

For you wool lovers and Hookers or Needlework enthusiasts

You have to check this out. She has an amazing amount of inventory not

to mention the fabulous amount of wool. OMG! I could have spent the day.

I did buy a needlework kit that I believe I can get a lot of "mileage" from it's design.

As if I need another project!!! It could be worse I suppose...I could

decide to start hooking!!! oh no no no.

Can't wait to go back.

 

 

 

This kit is Birds& Brain Designs

That's it for today and I really enjoyed spending this time with you..

I hope you enjoyed it as well.

Might be time for my Hot Toddy and the football game...almost

time for Half Time.

 

Until we meet again......Bon Soire!

PS.....don't forget....I love mail and comments.
