Another month will be half gone at the end of this weeks challenge!

Not much happening with me on the making side. Still organizing the sewing room. Used 200 pieces of cardboard on material and got 300 more. Will only need maybe 100 or so but got extra. Will just have to buy more material to fill them.LOL! Would love to but...need room to work in there.

Moved a set of shelves and forgot about a mirror being back there and if fell and broke. A big mirror that was free at Salvation Army one day while there.

So I hope to finish up getting the room ready and getting the curtains hemmed for in there, patching a few pairs of jeans and I would be more than HAPPY if that all gets done this week. And the rocker which was my grandmas painted white for in there. I have both of hers and they are black.

What are all you gals planning for this week?

Lana---that's a tall order!
I hope to make a card, do a little cross-stitching, and maybe start some ornaments. With DS gone for 4 days, I'm planning a mini, at-home crafting retreat for myself. :)

The gift tags are gorgeous.
I am not sure what I will be doing this week. I do get annoyed when I don't get anything done so I shall try to get something out of the way. Starting to cool down here soon so would love to get the house cosied up for winter. Am thing of making a few table cloths with some snowflake fabric I have.
Would love to go through my mums fabric stash to see what she might have for the quilt

Jampss, no idea why it isn't working. Use the link in my signature. It's the post of August 2nd, 2010. It might be quicker using the tag... crafts I made to find it.
