Getting creative again!!

First purse I loomed on my own. Kind of made it up as I went. Just wanted something patriotic!!



Shopping bag taught in loom class



Swiffer cover. The pattern called for making this in 3 pieces, but I like things more simple, so I adjusted the sides and length, made it all in one piece and slip stitched around the whole thing to seal the edges. I needed to mop the floor and I was so please how well this worked!! And to know I don't have to buy those expensive refills -- I can just rinse this out after use and toss in the washer when it gets too grimy!!




Loomed picture cloth - you can almost seen the sun if you look close.


Fun in July

The kids and I arrived back in Oregon June 30. Had 2 wonderful weeks with them before mom & dad arrived. We took them out to the property and had a great July 4 weekend.

Diana arrived July 10 with her 2 boys; Eric & Beverly arrived with Benjamin on July 14. We have taken the kids to the zoo and Discovery Village twice. Eric bought them a "play pool" and they have had lots of fun in it. Some random pictures from July.....
