I ran out of brown plastic bags. I cut some more up while I was at home last weekend. Still not enough! I have 4 more rows yet before I even start on the handles. This pattern makes a large bag. Since I didn’t have any more brown, I couldn’t help myself but to start on another one, this one in yellow.

I did finish the jingle bell plastic canvas blocks while at home this last weekend. The weekend before while sorting stuff I did find a bit more plastic canvas. So, I can make more later, but that will be a project for later.

I sorted scraps and pulled out all of the blue so this months Super Scrappy color of blue. I got these made so far. The pink ones went together well. I’m seeming to have trouble getting the blue to come out right for some reason,

I have plans to attend a retreat in March during Spring break, and another one in June. I’m already thinking about what I will work on. I’m really thinking of putting the Thangles blocks away until then. I also know that I have a baby blanket that needs to be made for charity. Also baby blankets for 2 more great grandchildren that are on the way. Sounds like the plan to me.

In the meanwhile, this is what I hope to get done this next week:

• Work on the black and white wall hanging.
• Continue to look thru items in my room.
• Work on the little memory pillows for mom.
• Get more brown plastic bags cut into plarn and finish the plarn bag.
• Make more blue yo-yo’s for February’s color.
