Reversible Scrappy String Rug



Chilly extremities run in the family. I, like my father before me, am forever finding ways to get just a little warmer. Multiple layers of socks will often do the trick. A hot pot of tea can work. The donning of 17 sweaters? A perennial favourite. My children are no exception to the rule. Often, on a frosty winter night, we have found ourselves bundled together under a stack of blankets watching a favourite television show, keeping each other cozy. Now that's the life, eh?


A recent addition to the quest for warm toes is the scrappy little rug. I've made a few in the last few months like the quilted heart rug and, my personal favourite, the crazed little rug of scraps, for example.


And here is yet another made especially for Elle who lives far away but whose toes should certainly not be neglected. A nice way to simultaneously use up scraps and keep those tootsies toasty, don't ya think?

Reversible Juice Lid Belt


Those little metal juice lids! They make a neat belt! Add a little felt, weave in a goodly piece of string, sew in a little embroidery thread. And it's 2 belts in 1!

A little closer...


The other side...



And here it is on my highly-paid model... Nope, it's just me.


And there you have it!

Thanks Lo, for taking these pictures! I find it difficult to photograph myself. That's a talent I do not possess!
