I love to make cold process soap and I was getting pretty good! I bought the lye in Winn Dixie, now with the drug probs it is not available. Where do you buy your lye from??
I think it makes great gifts, my fam loves it.

Then a baseball twin size.

Also, bind my DD's quilt. Or, make a ruffle. I'm leaning toward ruffle.

Our ACE hardware carries it (or used to...I don't know now...) but since I buy in bulk I get it online. You have to sign a HAZMAT thing for it...perhaps to deter criminals?

Aw. I feel cheated. The in-laws have a no gift policy this year (kids excepted, but the only kids are mine so, no one to make for)
My own family is far away. Must make things to post to my mother and sister though- I can just put my all into those two projects......

I made my list today of what I hope to get made for Christmas gifts. Now that I know it is 77 days until Christmas the list will have to be changed....Where does the time go? My problem is I am spending entirely too much time on this board and not sewing. I am afraid I will miss something that I sure needed to know....I do enjoy reading and looking at all the great projects that everyone is doing.
