Fabric pieces
I have a lot of left over fabric pieces because I am one of those that hate throwing away fabric. I am currently cutting and working with all of these fabric pieces to be used in different project that have nothing to do with a sewing machine. I am hoping to use these pieces in fabric art on canvas and a fabric rag rug. This is what my work space looks like:
First the pieces of fabric are cut into 5x1 inch strips for the rag rug and then the left over pieces are being used for the canvas fabric art. I am even tracing different shapes and sizes on the fabric to be cut out later. I am hoping that I can get my two Grand-kids to collage them on canvas. It has been three days of doing this so far and I am only half way through my scrap fabric. I am excited to get done so that I can start working on the rag rug.

Another quilt top done.......
Saying "another quilt top done" sounds good but the problem with that is just that, it is ANOTHER QUILT TOP DONE. I have 4 quilt tops now that are waiting to be finished, and another quilt to be made along with other projects I want to do. I will not start another quilt, even though it is for my husband who want it done because it has to do with old cars. But he will just have to wait. I want to get the 4 tops done because a couple of them are for charities. So with that said here is the one I just finished. I wanted to find a way to use up some of the scraps that I had.
Another project that I am going to do that will use up some of the scraps is a rag rug. It is made up of pieces of fabric scraps.

Pipe Cleaners
When I was a kid I use to love playing with pipe cleaners but the creations were pretty basic. I came across this book on the web and fell in love with it. I love the pictures on the front and the other pictures that they showed. I am contemplating on getting this book but the problem I have is no young grandchildren to make them for. If any of you that read this have small ones that would enjoy these little animals, you should consider getting the book.

Decision made ........
After working with the circle squares, I have to decided to only half the squares because of the size of each square. If I quarter them then they would be to small so with that said this is how I am laying them out on my design wall.
