The purpose of those leftover bindings and other leftover strips was to make myself drawstring bags. This is the result
And the reason for making them is that I like to have 4 beanies on the go at various stages of construction at anyone time.
In the past they were all stored in this bag together
Everytime I put my hand in to take out the knitting it somehow get itself into a mess and time had to be spent unraveling a big tangled lump of yarn and rummaging around the bottom of the bag to find knitting needles. No more.
All four now neatly stored in their respective bags.
During the week hubs and I met up with friends for lunch. I could not go past the linguine with roast vegetables
My quilting group's 2 fat quarter challenge reveal was last Saturday and some great ideas came out of it.
Good progress is being made with putting the tops on the handtowels. More on that later as I am off to Spotty this morning to buy more buttons. I hope that nothing else slides off the shelf into my basket!!!!!
Back soon and in the meantime
