Catch Up Time.....

First off- The photo word challenge

"STRETCH"

Why is it that the giants in my house forget about short ass me.....not that I'm that short, I measure a whopping 162cm. Mind you though all of the men in the house hold are well over the 6ft mark.
All I ask is that they lower the  shower head for me so I don't have to "stretch"

"Just Book It"

Now this is where I join up with Sharon over at vroomans quilts and a bunch of over lovelies to make a project out of a book, Magazine etc that we have laying lifelessly on our shelves.
1 project a month!
I also have a folder with lots of free projects that I've been saving, with all good intentions of me going to make them one day.
This time I finally got around to make the Mug Bag from Red Brolly Designs
Yes, I have used Tim Holtz eclectic elements range.
This is it opened, I even have a tea bag holder.
and this is the back.

"OPAM"

I join Kris from Tagalong Teddies and Peg from happy in quilting
Who are the lovely ladies that keep us all motivated and they also keep a tally of all of our finishes.
This is all of my finishes for March a total of 29 Items
1 Elf
1 Flag on a stick
1 Mug Bag
9 Lavender draw sachets
6 Lavender eye masks
9 Burp cloths
2 Hot Pads


And not forgetting the flags on a stick.

You accomplished a lot in the last month, and that mug bag is in my to-do folder also.
I am also the shortest one in our family, and I always notice when I drive a car that one of the men used before me. I always sit way low and my feet will not touch the pedals.

You have had a really productive time Tracee!! I have the same problem with the shower and as the lady above also the car - strange how I put the seat back to where it was when I am finished with it but no one else does!!!

You have been very busy. Good idea making projects from the volumes of books and magazines that we all seem to have.
