Weekly update: parts A, B, and C

I have three of the four parts of my One Monthly Goal completed.

A -- Two tote bags for the Rotary Golf outing on May 18













B -- A mug rug for a colleague who is retiring (luncheon May 17)  (And while I was at it I made one for a friend who's graduating from Gateway Technical College this coming Tuesday.) 

C -- Three mug rugs for P.E.O. committee members with whom I've served this past year
(presentation June 1).  (Daisies are the P.E.O. flower.)

I am narrowing down ideas for D, a tote bag for the P.E.O. committee chair.




I made a Chinese Puzzle block in pink for the May Rainbow Scrap Challenge .  It joins the January-April blocks on the design wall.

This month's Block Lotto is a rail fence variation (6-1/2") with white/green/blue. I made 8 blocks.

June is my month as the Block Lotto designer.  I have chosen the block, written the instructions, and made samples.  You'll have to wait until June 1 to see what it is!

P.S.  My sister and I with our mother on her last Mother's Day, 2001.

  9. Those daisies are adorable, and I love your tote bags, too! I've never made a bag before -- they SCARE me! Isn't that funny? But I'm having trouble finding a casual, fun summer bag that fits my iPad and if I could find the right pattern... :-)
