New List, just have to


I have a new look for my Things To Do List
I find this one so much easier to do and read. Reminds me of being at school and how our assignments would be up on the chalkboard for us to do. And you had to do it or you'd get a bad mark, well I still do not want a bad mark, you know what I mean.

I did not tell you how I did on last weeks to do list. With all the errands I had to attend to, that I forgot about it and posting this next weeks to do's also.

Well as far as last week goes, I did get most of what I wanted done. 

  1. Finished planting fall crop done
  2. Freeze potatoes and onions- did onions but still need to do potatoes
  3. Start repairs on hen house did that by getting supplies needed
  4. Decorate front porch What do you think



     
       6.  Find and buy apples done
   7.  Get a hair cut done but no photo for this,  PLEASE


I was also able to get some other things done that I just did not have on the list but that always seems to happen. I can so easily get side tracked, I'll be working on something and then I'll get an idea or remember something I was suppose to attend to and there goes my plans out the window. 
I was able to to make Chicken broth from some whole chicken I bought, cut up and freeze, then the broth.


Then I went to the nursery while in Tulsa and had to come home with these, now I need to prepare a bed and plant.
Plus the cleaning of my dutch oven I posted about a few days back.
See what I mean.
So now I'm on to this week.
Wish me luck.

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section          The joints you'll need will be 2 - 3/4" elbows 2 - 3/4" T's 2 - 3/4" to 1" T (this will be the base of the Feet) 4 - 1" elbow Also need pipe cutters (this cost me almost as much

Yarn Along 2/20/13 Spoon Pin Doily

It's snowing here and I know some of you are tired of snow but here we will take the moisture any way we can get it. Plus it just gives me a reason to stay in and work on some of my projects. In this picture I'm not sure if you can make it out but in the background there are some wild turkeys that hang around the house sometime, just  chilling This project I'm working on is Spool Pin Doilies.   I had never heard of them before until Bonnie Hunter had mentioned it on her blog . She a had a viewer send her one for her sewing machine along with a pattern. I did not like the pattern but loved the idea so I decided to make up my own version. I wanted a more simple, smaller and fuller doily. So I tried different thread sizes to get one that I like. (From left to right) I tried sock yarn, which I'll redo because I think I like that look. Heavy weight crochet thread, nope too big Bamboo yarn, I like it. Looks good on my Kenmore. Pearl cott
