Where have time gone...!!

It's the end of April all ready. I have been busy with just sewing different stuff. Yes, Stuff...!! I have embroidered some kitchen towels for myself. Have some with Ice Cream Sundae, Cheesecake, and Chocolate covered Strawberries. And I love the waffle weave towels, they just clean up and wash up nicely.

I have been making some cute tissue box covers. I made this one for myself, then I was in a pincushion swap and made a few for the swap.

The pincushion swap was just so much fun. Very talented people made just the cutest PC's. I love them all. I can't wait until the next swap, think I'll start making some now for it. I have seen some cute patterns for them and want to try them out.

Also lets talk about Rope Bowls. On HGTV message board, on a PJ Party, they showed how to make them. I am addicted to this. So much fun, and I am using up a lot of my scraps with the bowls. I have 3 GD's that love putting stuff into them. And I am making a few for them now. I have made 3 for myself already. Simple and just to much fun. The pink bowl I made is a large bowl and I have my scraps that need to be cut into 5 in squares in the bowl. (The next quilt I want to make is going to be with 5in squares.) And a little blue/white bowl under my sewing machine.
