I am making a canvas wood carrying thingy-dont't know what you would call it exactly-just know that when hubby brings in wood he carries it close to his body. Thought I would be able to design a canvas carrier that will have handles. NOT a tote bag thing , more like a sling!?!?!?!

I am making a quilt with all different kinds of fish prints and a short sleeved pocket shirt or two with other fish prints, and replacement boat cushions out of marine grade vinyl.

In my house, might as well make it in colors for a female, as men carrying in wood and then cleaning the ashes out the fireplace...roflol

I am making my DH a bowtie quilt in indigo blues in Civil War reproductions and fabrics that look like that or at least I think they do. Also I am going to try and make him some boxer shorts and pj pants from some flannel. I have made my son a fleece blanket before, may make him some pj pants too. I love working on the bow tie quilt since I found a pattern that can be fully machine pieced. My hand sewing skills suck...

I am making my husband and son, an apron, with a matching chef hat, and pot holders. They love to cook! My son actually ASK for a plastic bag holder for all his wal-mart bags to reuse them!
