۞ Sweet Interruptions ۞ 93

OOO-BJ-what ya gettin rid of-you know I am going to have a swap for craft items-hold onto that stuff and you can use it for the swap:) Butttt-if you have paint brushes, those come to meeeez;)LOL

I didn't make that one it's the one in the book.The one I'm making for Stacey has purple in it.

When I was coping the instructions for the "Bag Lady" I found this on the other side. Isn't that pretty.

OMG Cindy!! Are you trying to get me into more trouble? With all this posting of clay workings I am going get involved yet. No, nope, nada, will be a good girl--no more new crafts!!! Well maybe just 1 more?

Stacey what kind of paint brushs are ya wanting??????? Cheapies or good brand?? Sable hair???

Sorry Fairy fingers... I use my paint brushes... and I only buy the cheap ones.
Hmmmm... I have so much craft stuff, I can't list it all here.
I inherited a lot from my mom... she dabbled in almost everything, and never threw anything away... plus, I also have lots of stuff from when my kids were home and trying their hand at doing some crafty things for school projects. PLUS... we all know those ONE TIME crafts that come along, when you need one thing, but they come in packages of several... well, I have the SEVERAL left, and will never use them... sooner or later, someone will need them, and I'll send them to them.... so, you sistahs just need to speak up when you need something.

BTW... I have several hundred safety pins... every size you can imagine ... anyone need some? I have no idea why I have all these.

I made some bracelets with safety pins and beads they turned out really cool. I've been thinking about making some more. No BJ I don't need any more I haven't used up what I have, lol.

Darn... just knew you'd need some in this package I'm sending.
How about some beading wire, florist wire... or what ever this wire stuff is I have...???

OH yep I can use that yep sure can. I just got my 2009 pressie need to fix one thing then will post pix. It's from Sistah Audrey.

Safety pins are great for basting a quilt together to machine quilt. Have oodles though.

Well Mama dearest i think it is suppose to be in the 70's today.

He he he Maid M.. us SI sistahs can sure stir a "Panda-monium" here!!!
BJ, hang on to those safety pins. They're great to baste quilts with, whenever you decied to do a traditional one. My brains need a good challenge and are slowly trying to work with the project. And if you're getting an alarm clock, those old time bell ringers are the best still.

Back to my joyful task :D

Lolol!! See that Maid M.. we're really alike!!!!!!! Yep.. used safety pins for the quilts. They don't prick you neither!

Cody, send some of that warm air over! My bones are crying!

So, Marion... are you saying I should just keep these safety pins for when I might, by chance, someday... want to quilt on the machine?
That's what has gotten me in the mess I'm in now... I just keep hanging onto all this stuff because someday... I JUST MIGHT need it... sheesh... some of this stuff is 30 years old !!!!

Cindy, I hope you're not disapointed! I just haven't felt much like working on crafts lately. I hope you liked the colors I chose.

Well... you could do a 'punk' style leather jacket for Michael. Hold the seams with safety pins instead of sewing!! That will truly be Americana!!

AND TACKY !!!

Jaye it may be in the 70's but it's still a little windy.

BJ, I don't have any safety pins, if you really want to get rid of some, I use them in quilting, too.

I'm going to call my Dr. in a little while, the pharmisist said the antibiotic shouldn't do anything except maybe upset my stomach. I's still nauseous and sweating.

Ok here is what I got from Audrey,

Apple dish towles, pot holder oven mit, cheese board I LOVE IT!!! had been looking for one,green pillow cases LOL I have been thinking of painting my bedroom purple with some hints of greens Audrey where are the sheets? King size please lol JK, a little angel (had to glue a wing on can't even tell it was broke) brass mushroom and birdies, a little magnet saying "Lord, keep your arm around my shoulder and your hand across my mouth" LOVE IT!!!! Thank You Audrey!!! Now I need to do some grcery shopping so I can use the cheese board.

Tacky??? Noooo BJ!!!! It will be Garment Art!!! ROFL!!!!!!

Audrey the color of the dish towles match the walls in my kitchen perfectly now, but I'm going to be painting it a ligther green this spring. It's alright that they aren't hand made I still love everything you sent. Thank You Dear Sistah!!!!!

Janice gave me the same fairy globe for the fairy swap! Oh my Audrey, they are lovely.

I just opened my 2009 box too from Laura. Thank you niece Laura for all the lovely treasurers. She must know I love to write notes and keep journals. If you can see on the table in the picture there is a wooden standup butterfly note keeper and note pads, a needle work that has a message I should memorize, a picture brag book for Riley!, a darling faux birdhouse for my sunroom, 4 leather butterfly coasters and A big leather bound journal with hummingbird motif engraved and painted on the cover. Laura you did way too much but I love you for all your thoughtfulness.

WOW!!! That is a good bunch of goodies, you got Deborah!!

Wonderful gifts Deborah. Yes, we all should memorize that verse: Believe in yourself!!!
Laura, did you make the coasters? What talent.

LOL yes, Jaye, great minds on the safety pins. Comes in really hand on a lap size quilt haven't tried a larger on machine quilting--usually send that out to be done as old fingers aren't as nimble and I don't have any chopsticks.

Beautiful!! Nice job, Laura!

Yes, Marion,. and she left it on the loop so I could finish the verse myself! How supportive that is to me, Laura I love you

Jaye, what is havarti cheese? I love Granny Smith apples and cheddar cheese

So proud of our niece Laura. Hard to believe that we have very talented young ladies in here.
We all should have a big sign BELIEVE IN YOURSELF hanging above our heads!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good job Laura!!
Cookie.. you are so bad... it took me an hour to find all the 30 books!!! See.. I'm supposed to be crafting..
Cindy, Havarti cheese is a dessert cheese. Great tasting!! I love it with apples.

Well jaye you did good, I'm still looking. Maybe I'm not understanding the puzzle :(

I'm still looking, so far I have found 21. I'm stuck but I haven't given up. I believe in myself!

I'll dmail you my findings if you want Cindy. It is tricky.. :D

Oh oh.. sometimes two sentences can contain one book.. that's a hint Deborah!

I had to open my Bible to help me find them. Surely that's not considered cheating. LOL

Noooo... I had to do the same Deborah... God do wants us to use some commons sense!!! Lol!!

Are any scrabbled? I think I found Titus.

I can't help myself.. this is one example Cindy.. 2 words, one name. #13 btw
