Well I was very glad that I have been saving them. I came across a cute backpack made out of them, and decided to start keeping them. Well I have not gotten around to making one but was making a quilt out of some stash I have had for a while. Well turns out I did not have enough of the teal at the top of this picture (sorry it downloaded smaller than it was). Anyway I pulled out my box of selvages (remember the manufaturer puts their name on them) and looked them up on the internet. I found some and was able to order some more and there-by will be able to complete the quilt.<br />

Here is one of the blocks from that quilt. It has three each, teal, blue and purple.

I am going to concentrate on one from start to finish this weekend. I just have not gotten very good at the actual quilting, so I have a lot of tops done that need quilting.

When I was putting together my sewing room (pics of room in another post, check it out). I needed something to do with those large spools of thread (the ones for sergers).<br />

Had my wonderful hubby cut a piece of 2x6 board (he rotered off the edges, so sweet) and drill holes to fit dowel rods, which he cut to size for me.<br />

I used some plastic tubing from the hardware store, in the plumbing department. (Take the dowel with you to fit the tubing. should be snug fit).<br />

<br />
Cut the tubing to small pieces and hot glue on the buttons.<br />
Slip them in place and they hold you spools. Look much more cute than the plain janes you can buy and cost was cheap.<br />

In the pink one I made a casing and put elastic in it. I found this nifty tool (not sure of the name, sorry). It grips the ribbon or elastic and the ring slides down to hold it tight. Then you just thread it through the casing. (beats safty pin method).<br />

Here is the pink one again. I planted the plant in glad plastic bowl. You could use anything, even the ugliest pot and dress it up to match your decor. I loved this. I did not hem mine but you could for an even neater look. The plants are on water trays to catch excess water and the skirt is long enough to cover it as well.<br />

I rolled the sock down and slipped it over the skein of yarn. Make sure the end where the start of the yarn comes is at the open end of sock. Then you can just use it right from the sock. no mess. <br />

I had a small cardboard box and an old picture frame that the back had gotten lost (why I kept it I'll never know. Well for this "right").<br />
I put 2 LED battery touch lights in the bottom of the box and laid the frame on top.<br />
Walah a small light box. <br />
Later I covered it with fabric to make it look pretty. <br />

fill the jars about 3/4 with the poly-pellets (they are just filler to use less liquid potpourri) and they look cool.<br />
add liquid potpourri.<br />

<br />
I have been reading a lot of blogs and decided maybe I should try this. <br />
A little about me: I am a mom of 3, A son, 2 dgtrs. And I have 7 grandchildren.<br />
I have been sewing since i was 10 years old. My mon taught me. I crochet, learned that from my Grandmother. I just recently got into quilting, wow is that addictive. I am currently working on creating my sewing room WOOHOO! I got a lot of inspiration from Karen (SewManyWays). <br />
Thanks so much for stopping by. Hope to meet lots of new friends.DEBBIEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00188816286759573566noreply@blogger.com0
