I love my bedroom even more


...now that I've made this wreath from my new stash of vintage sheets.

********************************************

And........... the above is fleece.

And this is a fleece cut & tie blanket that my daughter asked me to make for one of her friends.

I love fleece-so soft, and man-it holds the heat.☺

That's what I've been up to. What have you been up to?

I love that wreath - do you attach the strips together before you wrap the wreath, or are they somehow attached on the back?

What have I been up to? Well, so far today, I've spent most of the morning looking for the other 1/2 of Noah's blankie. No luck so far.

Thanks-I love it too. I had a foam wreath and I had wrapped it strips of a cutter quilt-it's in the blog somewhere. I just left that on there for padding and then I tore some short strips and wrapped them around and overlapped them a little on the back and then stuck a pin in the back to hold it. No sewing involved.

And does Noah like both pieces of his blankie or do you need to wash the one half.

It was always tragic when Jessica lost her blankie!

Oh Gosh, I remember how Jess cried so much when Jodie was washing her bubby!
I hate that I have a virus on my computer and can't do my blog.

Love your new wreath!! We are never going to get you out of your bedroom before long!!! Love the fleece blanket too. They are warm. Remi keeps one in the car in the winter because he is always freezing. I may try to sew today. I bought a regular ironing board YAH> and a new iron since I still can't find mine. I bought a cheap one so if I do eventually find mine I won't feel so bad. I really want to get the boys a list taker made because I have so many cute things to fill in the pocket and a cool Lego Darth Vader pen for the pen pocket. So I hope I can be productive today!!!!!!!!!!!!
