April 6th Meeting

I am late in posting from our last meeting. We made the charging baskets. There were only three of us, but it was quiet and we got our charging basket completed and talked alot. I will post pictures later.

At the next meeting we will be making lounge pants from sheets. I am so excited to be able to get a few pair done to be ready for Christmas or upcoming birthdays. They are so quick and easy. I've found that you can get 2 pair out of a full or queen or king sheet. Seriously, I have purchased sheets for $3 at the thrift store and made two pair out of them which makes the lounge pants cost about $2 (with elastic cost too). Amazing! Can't beat that. I did make myself a pair out of owl fabric (which I will be wearing to our meeting) and I had purchased 3 yards. I won't give you the total on that pair because you can imagine it wasn't $2. The owl fabric was purchased about a year ago. I always get way too many projects going and some get pushed to the back burner.

Anyways, aren't you all glad you will be coming to make the pants on monday. YOU will finish yours in a night - not a year!

Pictures will follow later of the charging baskets.
