Needed something to do while watching TV in the evenings. This is the "Enchated" pattern by Annastazia Cruz. I made it in a size 6. I haven't done any smocking for a couple of years so I really enjoyed it. The trouble with finishing a project is that you have to think about what to do next.<br />

Rebecca and I have been doing quilting this summer. But you gotta know, I am not a quilter.<br />
So far we have made two quilts. The blue one is for me and the yellow/black one is for her.<br />
The thing I have learned from this is that I have a lot more to learn. Our quilts are not show pieces but rather to be used.<br />
<br />

So this week I needed to finish the crinolines for the poodle skirts</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here I am gathering tulle.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am using my gathering foot.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is one of my favorite ways to gather,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
especially if you have many miles of fabric to gather.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The finished product.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now I did not get to fancy with these.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They may only wear them once.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I made four of these.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Perhaps next year I will tell them they can go to the store</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and buy a costume.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Seems to me that would be much easier.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I will get some pictures when they are all dressed up</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so we can see the total look.</div>

So you know I made a linen bread bag yesterday.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had half a loaf of bread I started using and put it in the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the bread bag.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This morning I got the bread out to make some toast.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The bread was drying out.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was not keeping my bread fresh.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well now I know.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
IT DOES NOT WORK.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But it is still a pretty bag and would be a nice way</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to present a gift of homemade bread.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
