Stitching TBC's

TBC's are plastic canvas tissue box cover sides. The swap I'm doing is that you make one or 2 for each person then we will whip stitch the sides together to make a wall hanging for Spring since that is the theme this time.
Still Stitching on.
 I was finished with these but had to remake them- read post below.
Finished and ready to mail out
 I got everyone who was only in 1 group done just need to mail them out Monday.
2nd TBC only 8 get this one
 The one in the picture above takes longer to make and I'm not a fast stitcher. I still have 7 of these to make. I adapted the pattern from a long tissuebox pattern to fit on this size.
1st TBC-everyone gets this one
The picture above is what everyone gets. I still have 8 of these left to make but they stitch up really fast.
So that's what I've been doing and why I haven't been quilting on anything. I have to get these done ASAP. Will also post a picture of the ones I recieved when I get them put together into a WH.
Have a Blessed Evening.

State Swap
This is the pc. magnet I made for the State Swap I'm in. I took today off. I'm really tired since I've been doing out to PT and Doctors everyday this week and tomorrow I still have my Colon Doctor appt. Then nothing this weekend. I may get to see DD on Mother's day that will be nice. Avetar(sp) is on pay perview Sunday so we are going to watch that- it's my Mother's Day present.
Well i'm still working on the TBC Swap, I'm about half done, I got all the ones that only get one TBC finished and ready to mail out, Now I'm working on everyone that gets 2 as I have to make 2 different ones for each person, I've got 15 more to make.

Sunday is here

Jack rabbit
 Well looking out my window in my sewingroom I saw a Jack rabbit, we almost never get them out here, we have the reguar bunnies with the white tails up never these. So I took a picture then told Hubby. When he went outside later there were 4 of them but they are gone now.

today i've been paying the monthly bills, did dishes and them I also finished the march Angel Bom and now I'm working on the March SnowBound Redwork BOM. i'm almost finished with that one then on to April's and i will be caught up to this month.
March's Angel BOM
 Then I remember that I have a plastic canvas magnet to make for a swap and the swap this month was make something with the color RED so I made this. I really like the way it came out and I'm going to be making one for myself too.
Red Magnet Swap
So right now I'm working on some other plastic canvas swaps, the ones I already made and mailed out someone stole them so now I have to redo all of them again. Talked to my PO about but the lady had already been fired so I can't find out what she did with them. So I will be doing that this week along with my Pt for my back and my doctor appointments I have.

Happy May Day/Beltane


As you can see I've been really busy with PT for my back and other stuff, also decieded to take some time off from sewing and I've been reading alot.
Now i'm in the mood for something different so I joined Annie's Attic yarn Club and these are the first 2 kits they sent me. I'm not sure if I'm going to crochet or knit them as they give dircetions for both.

My LQS just started selling yarn and they have an open house sort of thing this evening for it. I want to go but not sure if I have enough engery or the gas for the truck.
Right now I'm working on the March Angel block from SeasonsBOM group on yahoo. I hope to finish that this weekend it's embriodery.
Next week is going tobe full with PT for my back and doctor appts.
