| Since I found new towels last week, I turned the grungiest of the the old ones into rags. The hand towels got cut in half and a zig-zag stitch put over the cut to keep it from raveling. I added a little scrap of trim to the washcloths so they will be easily recognizable as a rag and not get put back with the towels. |

| I made a simple batch of pineapple preserves - it was simple, easy and tastes good...... |
 |
| but I cooked this batch too long, it is way to thick (hard) so I will try another batch later |

| Our son finished law school in December, took the bar exam in Feb. and will found the results in April. He studied lots, stressed a lot, so to relax a little at home, he got this tissue flower kit from my craft closet and started making some. |
 |
| the kit makes 24 so he has a ways to go- they are really pretty and realistic for just paper. The local attorney he is working for is keeping him busy, maybe all 24 will get done, maybe not. |

| I am trying to make a blouse for me using an old blouse as a pattern - I've been sewing for 40+years but I've never done this. I'll let you know how it turns out. |
 |
| I really like the fabric - blue blackberries - fabric designers don't have to be realistic. |
 |
| I've done a few diaper and wipe deals - I read about the deals at some of the coupon blogs and found some great savings. I think I am stocked up, for awhile anyway! |
