Double Duty Days (DDD)

Binder Clips


Ok I can take no credit for this post......
I was scrolling through my FB feeds and came across Ioleen's post (Back Home Quilter) 
of this YouTube video.....

Brilliant is all I can say!! 

I have a bunch of these Binder Clips and never thought to use them in most of the ideas presented in the video......enjoy and you're welcome!! ;)



Short and sweet post today....
Now go and find some clips.....



 One More......

Did you know that you can use your Frixion Pen on paper???
So if you wanted to divide up a pattern but didn't want to ruin the pattern, you could use your frixion pen and iron it off. 
I use plastic sheet protectors and Zwipes or China Markers....but it is great to have another option in a pinch!!! White markers would work too, but they rub off to easily!


Sorry I was taking these at night....not sure if you can see, but I drew yardage boxes and when I'm trying to figure out how many units I can get in a specific amount of fabric I sometimes do it old school.
Frixion Pen here
Touch of heat and it's gone!!! Too cool, guess paper is a type of fabric too.

#56 Finally Summer has Arrived!!

I am so glad that the good weather has finally arrived!! This week, along with sewing, I hope to get out in my flower bed. They are looking sad and neglected. We have had so much rain and cold damp weather, it is nice to see the sun!!

Had a blast today, enjoying that sun. Went for a walk and then had an adventure driving the new side by side. If you listen closely you can hear me scream, lol, before my daughter screams for me!! 

And then are son-in-law and daughter followed on the 4 Wheeler!!


What I've Been up to:

Finished a few more pouches


Finished all the Tiny Mini Pouches!Original pattern can be found here, at So Sew Easy. There were 3 sizes, 3 about the size of an eraser,  working zipper and all! And another group about 2"x 2" and the ones pictured below.
