It's been a month?

 It's been a month to the day since my last post - in a way, it seems longer ago than that, but in another way, it doesn't seem it's been that long.

I really haven't had a lot to post about... haven't felt up to doing much of anything  - tired of my lack of ambition.  :( .  

I have done a few projects but not near as many as I should have.

I did make this bird feeder.  I had the oversized coffee cup ( hubby used to eat his Cheerios from it), bought the plate at the $1.25 store ( former Dollar store) and my youngest daughter helped me get the "sign" into a format that I could resize and then print onto waterslide decal paper.



And I've been working on crossbody bags for the great gds for Christmas this year.  The first one I made used themed fabric that ended up being too young for any of them...(who knew that 10 was too old for something Frozen themed).As you can see, I also made a little change purse to go with it.  What you can't see are the matching scrunchies that are inside the little bag.  Since the girls are all too old for this/ these, I dont know what I'll do with them.  

The next attempt at a crossbody bag was a real PITA.  Some parts of the pattern didn't make sense so I had to 'wing' it.  It still came out cute, but unfortunately about half an inch too narrow for a phone.

The only other thing I've been working on is this...

I don't like the brown discs...they are hard to read and I had to find a white pen to write names and dates on them....decided quite awhile ago that I was going to paint them a lighter color. 

 Finally did it...just need to add the names and dates to them now.  The white colored ones are the backs of either the blue or the pink.  I painted that side too so that I could put the birth year there to help me remember just how young - or old - they are.

And that's it.  Today is grocery pickup and groomer day for Buddy.

take care
