Oh my, finally here I am again. I had to get my picture uploaded again after I had the problems with the computer. Finally got it done in between my projects. Still have many more in progress, so had better explain. These are the cheer bows that I have made for my GD's cheer team. They need them for Dec. 11th for a competition. Still have 4 more to get finished
A close up of the bows. They are made of 2 layers of grosgrain ribbon, with the red layer of sequined fabric cut in strips. They all are bonded together with heat and bond. Then to sew them together, as the bonding makes them stiff so they hold up better. It is a fun job...

Here's the chair cushion that I made for my old rocker. Picked it off the curb 50 years ago and refinished it. Wanted to have a rocker for my first baby girl. She will be 50 in Jan. Oh, how time does go on. It is still rockin'.....


I recovered my pillows to give my some accent color in my new colors. Just got a new loveseat that reclines and a recliner. Had sold my big hide-a-bed and 2 recliners. Needed to downsize a little. Went from hunters green to more beige or brown, and they are much more comfty...



These next 3 pictures are of jewelry that I have cocheted with fun fur and other fun yarns, added pony beads to give them a little bling... This one was more for summer. You can use just about any weird looking yarn or strings or ribbons..... just the chain stitch with any beads added...




I love wearing them with sweats and blue jeans as they just are more casual. Wish I had made them a little longer, but they will do.





Fun to make and fast...
Guess that's enough for today. If I get better at posting things on here I am going to try to post more often. I have so many projects going that I could probably add every day. But then, it just makes life soooo much more fun when you're so busy that you don't have any time to get in trouble... LOL
