1-AUGUST-2014 POM Directions & Discussion's.
Hi Everyone,
We are going to make a project from "Christmas in July" so we can all get a head start on the upcoming holiday's. It's AUGUST already & time for the Project of the Month to be posted. I have gifts for Christmas on my mind, as I made this Rice Bag for "The Christmas In July" project of the month theme. While I was cutting my fabric's, I cut out enough blocks for two rice bags, so I have another nice gift selection all done for the holiday's. I hope everyone is as excited about this idea as I am. Enjoy & get to making your Christmas in July project for August. :D :D :D :D http://www.thequiltladies.com/2011/07/christmas-in-july-rice-bag.html |

I remembered that my grandparents and parents once had bags filled with salt. They are heated and then put the puns were painful place.
But the bag with rice sounds much better. I wonder however if time does not make butterflies rice. |

Sometimes 1 or 2 minutes in one person's microwave is too hot and another's not hot enough. Personally, I find that 1 minute in our micro if I am placing it on bare skin is warm enough. If I am placing it on clothing, then 2 minutes is wonderful. My DGK warm theirs up each night before bed and take it to bed with them. Keeps them warm and snuggy until they fall asleep. It is a great comfort when they have tummy aches too. |
Linda thanks for the reply, I had some mixed emotions about rice today and I am sewing bag and are proud of it.
