Too Busy To Blog

I know I said I was going to do better this year but the month of February has been so busy it's been hard to find time to blog.
First like many people I'm getting some cleanup, fix up, paint up ideas together. Dining, laundry and kitchen are on the list and these will be mostly cosmetic changes. Paint for the laundry room, new lighting for the kitchen and new lighting and storage for the dining room. When my daughter was young our family computer was placed in a corner in the dining room so we could keep an eye on what she was doing. Well she is 26 years old now and it's time for new storage for glasses, stemware and dishes.
In other news I joined a swap on IG it was a small swap just 6 of us called A Handmade Home. This is what my partner made for me.

Pot holders, including one skillet handle holder.


This is what I made for my partner who said her room was gray, white, blue/aqua


A batik table runner and bowl. I also made a little bag for her young daughter.


Of course I've made a few more bowls,




And I've also made my second favorite thing bags


 The first one is a crochet/knitting project bag made with pink and white poppy fabric.

 The second on is made with a cat print quilting fabric and gray Essex linen.

And the last is my favorite because I love denim anything! Orange floral print and denim drawstring crochet/knitting project bag.
Today I'm hoping to work with my yellow scraps as tomorrow is March 1st and a new color will be chosen for The Rainbow Scrap Challenge. Judging by the weather forecast I'll have time to finish up with my yellow scraps tomorrow as well, snow is on the way again!! ⛄⛄⛄
