Carry coloring book and crayons or "Let's Go Shoppin"

I made this small bag for Kenley to carry a colo book and crayons....But I can also see her using it and saying "Going Shoppin"  I hope she will like it.  (Haven't decided if it will be for Birthday or for Christmas.)

Kenley's apron

 Kim bought a apron for Sophia,   I made a pattern off this apron.  Below is the apron that I sewed for my granddaughter for Christmas.  Kim wanted me to put tie strings at the top instead of the circle put it over your head like the one that she purchased.  Hope Kenley will like it.

New drapes for our travel trailer.

 The patio door.... I did buy  a rod that I intend to fasten on the outside of the window covering and hang the drapes on the outside.  That way we can use the white slated patio window coverings that came with the trailer.  The way it is we cannot close the blinds that came with the trailer.

 This one is behind the other bunk.... We fixed this bunk that Bud could sleep up front with me where it is warmer.....

 Behind the couch and the east end of the bush out.

Now the back bedroom was a different story.   I put the shower curtain rod along the north end and covered it totally.  But since the push out walls are cold and he was constantly complaining I got cafe curtain rods....Made an extra set of drapes, and put them on the sides of the push outs.  So he has curtains on three sides of his head when he is in bed....  But he did tell me that it is not drafty anymore.  YAAAAAAA.

I got the curtains at Walmart. Some of them I had to cut in half since I didn't need 63" curtains...on the back of these curtains I put a flannel like backing and a piece of broadcloth.  This makes them very heavy.  They already were thermal lined. But by putting this extra lining and backing on the back. It makes it very, very thick, and the air does not come thru them.  Also they are room darkening so his bedroom is now very dark, since I took the drape that was on the patio door and hung it over the back door.   Should have no trouble sleeping in the middle of the day either.

I am very glad this project is done. Two Saturdays in a row I sat at the sewing machine.  My back and neck really don't like me setting sewing that long, So I am really grateful that these curtains are done. Now for putting the one up behind my bed and for putting the patio one up on the outside of the window casing.

Christmas 2011- Secret Pal Gift.

This is the 1918 vintage doily that I made in ecru for my secret pal at church for the Christmas gift.  Dec. 13, 2011 Friendship Company Christmas.

I surely do hope that Mrs. C.......    will like it.

I did post it on face book and she did tell me she thought it was beautiful.  hee,hee I am laughing. She has no idea it is for her.
