Stripe Bag

So as a quilter I have lots of scraps from various projects...

.  

I ended up with a lot of long think stripes that I kept for I didn't know why. 

Then I brought a knitting loom recently!

 Using the knitting loom I create this little bag I cut the old core of some thread as buttons.

Quilts of 2011

I am still learning but I relieze I haven't post my two lap quilts I made last year!.

The first one in my atomic moneys.

It is another wall challenge from my old job. 

"Chimpanzees for a Nuclear Tomorrow"

The Chimps, atom bomb cloud and the cornor squares are all spray painted.

 This is the back.  The camera is spray painted to.

 This is from a beginners quilting class I took through my local guild.

The back.

I am A machine!

Since my recent unemployment I have been job searching & walling in my room. 

I have changed it up a little. 

I set up a crafts table and taken on some quilting projects!  

I found some cheap charm packs from Tuesday Mornings.

I got two and embarked on this quilt tops.

 I think the brown bit looks like a litte bat peeking out.

 I cut the 5 x5 squares in half & created these from

http://sticksandbubbles.blogspot.com/2011/03/kind-of-sort-of-not-really.html

 I got them put together.  I didn't have any fabric for a good border.

I also am a little broke so I don't have the anything for backing  so this will be a top until further money ...

This was a one day project!

Stop the Anti Piracy Act

Unemployment disaster or fresh start?

I am now unemployed and more depressed as ever! 

 I have always enjoyed being a part of something!

I think that is why I would enjoy living at a commune.  

Don't get me wrong I enjoy technology and alone time.

Well here is week last week:

I have decide to take some time off time recording and blogging for the next few weeks in order to do some internal searching and figure out what to do with my new "opportunity."
