The List Continues to Shrink

-
Three more orders almost finished. They just need varnished now.
These aren't colors that I normally use and they are way brighter than they look in the picture.
A nice change from my normal palette.

And basic stars and vines.
And now for the award for the
Best Use of Turkey Leftovers.
The Nominees include:
Almost every household in the country.
And the winner is....(shuffling around as I open the envelope)
Drum Roll Please.
Dum da da dum!
MY HUSBAND!

This soup rocks.
It is literally the BEST soup I have ever eaten.
Sorry Mom (who rarely reads the blog anyway)
But this beats your soup!
I really hope that statement does not affect the care packages of wedding soup that I receive.

I am telling you THE BEST!
I can't wait to be hungry again.
Soup for breakfast...

Hi Cathy!
The soup looks really yummie.
My hubby John, made turkey soup this year too.
It was the first time for him to make turkey soup as he really is not fond of it.
Surprise, surprise.....It was one of the best soups he has made in our 38 years together. As of this year it is now in his "turkey holiday" recipe file.
Isn't it great that our hubbies like to cook?
Thanks for sharing Cathy, have a great week.

Walker/Wheelchair Bag Tutorial

Some of you asked for this. This is literally one of the EASIEST, most appreciated projects that I have ever made. I timed myself while I made this one and it was finished in under 1/2 hour and that included refilling bobbins, taking pictures, and searching the button box for two matching buttons. They are even faster if 1.) you don't do all of the above and 2.) you make them on an assembly line. Step 1. Cut a piece of fabric for the straps 4 inches wide by 14 or so inches long. If you have a very lightweight fabric, you can double it or use press on interfacing to back it. Step 2. Cut two coordinating rectangles approximately 12 to 15 inches by 15 to 18 inches. This is very loose, you can use vary the size of them. Pin those together on the bottom and halfway up the sides. Step 3. Press the 4 inch rectangle in half lengthwise with wrong sides together and sew around raw edges, then zig - zag the edge. If the fabric frays really bad, you can go over it again. Step 4

Sharpie Markers and Alcohol = Really Quick Art

What a fun, creative process!  Grab all those sharpies that are hidden in your desk drawer. Find that bottle of rubbing alcohol. (Vodka or hand  sanitize might work, you can always experiment) Dig out a canvas,  or go buy some,  nothing like having some blank canvases hanging around.  Draw some wild and crazy lines. Fast and not a lot of planning work best.  Hit it all with some alcohol.  Allow it to move and blend.  I use a brush for the alcohol,  You could use a spray bottle or eye dropper,  I just want a little more control on mine.  And re-outline with a black sharpie!   That's it!  Fast Art!  I will be teaching this next Friday along with two other  fun projects in Mayville, New York.  For more info go to: https://www.facebook.com/ARTRetreatatthelake
