BUSY TIME OF YEAR

They keep telling us we are in an El Nino year.  So far, here in Southern  California, we haven't noticed much difference.  But, I was a Girl Scout and still remember our motto to be prepared.  I had a new roof put on where needed and added new gutters.   This week I got the trees trimmed big time.  What a mess.


What a difference it makes with the light.


I did get some sewing in.  I'm making some car trash bags.  Honestly, it takes longer to decide on the fabric than to make them.

 I used iron-on vinyl so they can be easily wiped clean.

I also made cloth gift bags and got the gifts in the mail by Friday.

I hear Monday will be a nightmare at the post office.

Hope you have a good week and

Quilt happy,

Marilyn

Those trash bags are great. I should make some. Today I will try to make a few of those gift bags.

Best to get prepared before it is too late.

The car bags are a great idea.
