I got two storage bags made so far today. Still hoping to get a sleeping bag done, but might not get it all complete. We'll see.

A sleeping bag is just a quilt with a zipper. I'm not making this from scratch, although of course a person could. I'm just enlarging the two we already have.
Got the sleeping bag done! One more to go. I'll be glad when it's over. They're so big and awkward to work with. I added eight inches to the width and eight inches to the length so they're now oversized and should be more comfy.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Finally got back to doing some sewing yesterday.
Have to get one ready to mail but something else has to
go in it...........ARRGGHH!! I am running so behind this year.
Nothing major worked on, am leaving a couple projects that take a little more time until after Xmas......I think.

I finished up the second sleeping bag yesterday and made two simple sacks for them to go into. Glad that's done. I can't decide what to work on now, but I'm sure I won't have to look very hard to find something.

FF - whatever you are making and need to send out will arrive at just the right time and whoever is lucky to get it will be thrilled - whenever it arrives!!
That is the cutest hat AP!! Really like how it is cut and your fabric is darling!!
I need to set up my sewing machine soon - very soon - but that is going to be my reward for putting away all my other crafting stuff in the LR - and off I go to clear out some more stuff!!Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.

No Ali. I think we just all shifted over to the "2012 Use it Up Challenge" in the leisure challenge section. I'm spending a lot of time rug hooking right now. I think a lot of us do a lot of different crafts/hobbies and found carrying on a separate thread for each one too much. By combining everything into one we have the freedom to work on what needs to be done at any particular point in time.

Ok, I thought that was for yarn-knitting & crocheting. Thanks! I don't see a thank you button...
