What are you making today?

Would you consider adopting me????
The other day I learned at my quilt guild how to make fabric covered laundry rope baskets. My first one turned out beautiful. I posted it to Daughter, sister,and brother...asking what colors they would like one made from. This one turned out big enough to be a trash basket. They all had reasons why they didn't want one. It just totally escapes them that I love doing things like this and they would have a part of me. The next day I met a cousin for breakfast. I took it and some other quilting things with me to show off to her. When she saw the basket it took her breath away. Before I could ask her if she wanted it...she asked if I could make her one. I gave her that one. Since, I made 2 more. One to use for whatever strikes me...and another even larger one with a matching lid to store fabric in. Such fun! Even if I am the only one who appreciates it. So today am finishing that up and then am making some doll clothes for my baby doll I got 51 years ago. Got a pattern back during the summer..but the mood didn't strike until last night. lol My family does not anything I might make so I'm good. No rushing to finish anything!!!! They all told me they don't want a quilt years ago...so that saved that anxiety to make them one. I am just enjoying my time.

I found a bright pink sweatshirt jacket at Wally World on sale, and nary a sign of a solid colored sweatshirt that had no design-----------So, I'm changing the idea for my DD's neighbor girl. Two of the folded diamond pieces will go toward making a simple purse since the jacket itself had kangaroo pockets on the front.
Still using the yo-yos and at least one patch
