A sling to help me lift the back end of my Golden Retreiver up the two steps into the house. It helped me keep Beau going for another two years.

A "doo-rag" for my hubby who is a biker. They were $13.00 at the biker shop, and so cheap and easy to make. He's a mechanic (called auto-technicians now) and it keeps the liner of his helmet cleaner.

Reminded me I made a fleece vest for biker hubby, and made booties out of leftover material. I put a red heart on each toe top, lol!

I made a fake belly for "Mary" for the Christmas play at church. Didn't know what I was doing but it worked.

Also made a VBS mascot one year. Everyone loves a 6'3", 225 Lb penguin, right!?!
