Sew-a-long

I was looking at Stardustshoe's blog, and she is hosting a "pants-a-long" to make some shorts/pants. I'm interested in sewing along with her, as I haven't sewn anything in quite awhile. I have boxes of material from my days of working at JoAnn fabrics that DH would love for me to use up and "de-stash"!! :) I finally got a new memory card for my camera, but am still having trouble with uploading the photos to Blogger. Now I have to put them on Flickr first and it is irritating me to have to do it "the long, hard way". Waaaaaaaah! :)

On the crochet front, I have been working on a "Hello Kitty" purse for my friend's daughter. I have both sides done, just need to put together and finish up.

Cin/Cyn Summer Cloth Crawl


I have been participating in a cloth crawl with my "Cindy Knitters" group on Ravelry. One box is reused and travels from location to location with gifts for each Cindy participant. After much anticipation on my part, the box arrived in Texas today with all the goodies in the photo. The cloths are knitted with 100% linen yarn, I was also spoiled with a skein of Berroco Cotton Twist, Skittles, and a packet of seeds from Jefferson's "Monticello"! Many thanks to my gifting "Angel"- Cindy, aka CPL Rockfish! Also travelling to each location with the box is a map to mark our locations on, and a small notebook to write a note in. Thanks for all the fun so far, Cindy's!
