And another one done....

Over the weekend I managed to get another one of my penny mats completed. It's part of a mat-of-the-month that I joined last year. I'm just a little behind on getting them made. And by a little, I really mean that this is the fourth one I've completed and they've already finished sending them to me for the year that this was supposed to take. Am I the only one that has this problem?

Here's the finished project....


I also got some felt and tulle tea bags made for an order I had.


Wow, a weekend where I actually got some things accomplished. SWEET!!!

In addition, we dropped the kids off on Sunday to spend the week with their grandparents. Maybe I'll get some other things done too........maybe. Actually, my goal is to get the house cleaned and in order before school starts. You know, get things started on the right foot.

Weekend accomplishment

Over the weekend I did actually manage to get some crafting done. Woohoo!!


I just love these. They're relatively quick to make and the results show up really quickly too, as you're going along.

Unfortunately this is only the third one that I've finished from my mat of the month membership. I'm only behind by about four or five. lol

Wyatt has knee surgery on Thursday so I'll have some time in the waiting room to get some stitching done. It will help to keep my mind occupied anyway....

Penny Mat 2

I finished my second penny mat from my mat of the month club (yes, that means I'm behind.....as usual) from Homestead Hearth.



I'm glad I got this one finished in time for fall!!

I'm really loving these because they work up so quickly. And honestly, it's nice repetative work that doesn't require too terribly much thought. Sometimes I just need that. *grin*

Penny Mat

I know I said in the last post that I had too many BOM's going on, and I do, but one of them isn't a block at all. I've been wanting to learn to work with wool so I signed up for a penny mat of the month club (PMOM?).

The first mailing was at the end of June and it started with this mat.


I'm participating in this one through Homestead Hearth and I really enjoyed this first penny mat. I can't wait to see what the next one brings. The kits include everything you need except the thread.

I was pretty pleased with how this one came out, especially since it's my first attempt at anything like this.
