Now that I'm stuck in the house the sewing machine was dusted off and oiled...
The fabric has been waiting to marry the thread.
I happened upon the quirkiest little thing to sew and found lots of tutorials on YouTube.
It's called a bowl cozy and it fits a standard 6" bowl, for microwaving.
The bowl cozy goes into the microwave and acts as a potholder. The four points are handy
to pick up the bowl which is nested inside the cozy. Take it from the microwave and the
hot bowl can nestle in your hands without getting burned. A bowl of ice cream stays cold
longer since the double layer of cotton batting insulates it.
A neat little thing to sew up as a gift.

I draw inspiration from that simple act of your moving button over a tad.
Good for you, brave one.
I usually imagine I will lose weight by next week and of course, it never happens and I go on for weeks on end uncomfortable and stubborn.
thanks for sharing.
Linen is undoubtedly my most favorite fabric.
How dreamy to be sewing a linen dress. It'll be stunning..I just know it..
Are you familiar with FS, (that's fabric-store dot com)? Beautiful, beautiful linens.
I have purchased from them a few times but I love the linen so much I'm reluctant to cut it.
Isn't that silly?!
The childrens quilt sounds nice.. Is it a particularly challenging design? Colorful?
I finished a quick n' simple lap quilt today for a friends mom who had successful brain surgery.
It was a somple -simple 10" squares quilt in rustic New England colors with a black tri and cranberry and cream homespun small check on the reverse side. It's adorable. I hope she likes it.

I will check out FS. I purchase most of my fabric online. My linen came from dailylike.ca. The quilt fabric came from the workroom.ca Both A+ Customer Service.
I get the reluctant to cut it! Just do it!
The children's quilt is coming along. I have the squares done. Just trying to figure out the borders, or do I really want them. Putting it down for a couple of days and will look at it again. Hopefully time with spark my decisions!
Yes, very nice fabrics for sale there. Have you ever bought one of their patterns, and if so,
are they "true to size for Americans", or do they run much smaller than American size women?
I am still making masks - up to 700 now. All donated. Our local group is working on needs for the schools now, it's a huge undertaking. I am looking forward to getting back to quilts.
