Sock Sack Addiction

I didn't get any scrap diddly parts done this week but I was able to get some other stuff done.... some humbug bags, roly nesters... my backpack FINALLY... pictures of this and more are over on the flickr site.

Now there's the sock sacks... the pattern was a free on this summer by Terry Atkinson of Atkinson Quilt Designs... she made it for her knitting friends to hold their sock yarn and needles... it has a cute zipper pocket on the front... well let me tell you... these babies are extremely addicting. I made a couple from my scrap bag this summer.... and then a few more and then a few more and now I've resized it so there's a set of four!!! If you make this... be aware..... there should definitley be a surgeon generals warning on them! I'll put a picture of the 4 sizes here and you can see them all over on the flickr site.......

It's been a weird week weatherwise in Indiana... temps up in the 70's... asian ladybugs everywhere covering everything... rain and now cold.... darn I just love it here.... if you don't like the weather just wait a bit... it'll change... lol

I've vaccummed the ladybugs off the door and windows several times this weekend... I no sooner get it done and the little darlings are back!! Just one or two days of really cold weather should shut them down... but just one or two days... then I want the sunshine and warm back!!!

My christmas presents are almost totally done.... I have 2 things to make before thanks giving and then 2 more that I don't need til xmas eve and that's it!!! Well... almost it... I have to make the cats new toys and a new nip pad......

ok... here's the sock sacks pic....



have a great week
