October will be halfway gone after this week!

This week I will hopefully sew on the quilt for Jaymee some.

We are on vacation and hoping to get so much done.

If I get some small candy canes I would like to get my 12 Days of Christmas mailed and out of here.

Some ornaments to work on for family and friends.

Sewing a new stocking for Jaymee and of course for the baby.

We also have the fleece to do Jacksons throw. Mario will be one side and wrestling the other. I had to buy 2 fleece blankets and then I will use them to make the tie ones. The things we do. (7 yr old nephew for his b'day that was 9-13. Couldn't find the fleece)

Kim, those mesh wreaths are so pretty.

What do you all what to accomplish this week?

Lana have you ever made them out of the fleece blankets very messy at first at least one I did was. I love the mesh wreaths but haven't wanted to pay the price for them. We got the mesh at 70% off. Kids out of school for the next two days so we are going to work on that tomorrow. Went to Cheer fest today with my 5yr old niece, which had to come home with me for the night or the next two nights, then went to dinner so it didn't get done today.

Also today seen fleece scarves that also had sequin material with them and fell in love with them but was not paying $20 for one because of course both my girls need them so that might be on the list too at some point

Work on wreath with Kayla and most likely Emma will be her to help

Love seeing what everyone has planned!

I did cut out a burp rag pattern last night. Mine from grandma was getting bad. I use the rounded hour glass shape burp rag.

Both blankets are done just need to get pictures up on the event page. My brother is going to look for his raffle ticket cutting stuff today because he is having a hard time getting anything from the head coach of the softball and basket ball team. He is the one that said he could get anything we needed.

Today will get to the wreath with Kayla

Kimmie, Yeah!

My sisters partner Michele called last night and wanted to know how hard the scarfs are to make, she wants to do her sister a fall color one. I think they are addicting once you start. Sundance yarn has some beautiful colors! I want to order a skein to do a Halloween colored one for an orange shirt I brought. (have to try the shirt on first)

Everybody I am so proud of you and the items you are completing!

Lana they are and I can't believe how little time it takes to make them. I made 6 in two days and that was just doing them here and there. I am going to make more Kayla and my niece Kali already have about 20 colors they want them in. I posted a picture to Randa on facebook and her and her roomates are going to look for colors they want I do have to find blue/white for them school colors.

ahorsesoul they were just going so fast I had no choice but to get them done

I did get another scarf for Randa finished yesterday and should be able to get her last one done today I hope
