scrubbies

My Aunty Marian shared how they make the scrubbies... I wrote down the instructions and hope to try and see if I can make them like Grandma.

Finally found a similar method to making the scrubbies that my Grandma used to make. I just need to figure out how to make these a little bigger...

scrubbie

My grandma used to make us these type of scrubbies. They are good to use for washing dishes. When she passed away, most of us salted up our stashes of scrubbies. No one really learned how to make them from her, which is a bummer. So with a combination of the internet, some photos my aunty had and youtube, I made this one. Boy, was it hard to crochet netting...my hand hurt afterwards even my forearm (probably because I hadn't crocheted in many moons). And it took me about 2 hours from cutting the netting to finishing... Hopefully it will get easier to do and I'll to be able to make more so that I can at least give the people in my family at least one each....

finally!

Finally got some beading "mojo"...I had forgotten how teeny these beads are (forgot the name of them already!)... Will try to do more during rainy days in 2015....

Keeping busy this rainy day....1 down and 3 more to go...

hello kitty bag

Made this shopping bag. Trying to use up the fabric I have. Will probably make several more using other fabrics.

bag insert

If you often change bags, these bag inserts are perfect. You just pick it up out of your bag and transfer all your "stuff" to the next bag. My Aunty made these, they are really pretty. Thanks Aunty!
