....from the handiwork journal
. . . still working on the scrap crochet blanket. I had plans to donate it, but Hubby and one daughter are fighting over who will get it. We'll see. This is my project to unwind on cooler evenings here. Right now it's 55 inches wide by 42 inches long.

Random Tidbits ~ Camper Everything ~ More Cleaning
Yesterday's chores were still getting worked on when the kids got home from school. I had to get everything washed and on the line as rain (storms) are expected today.
I got all the rugs washed and dried too. Speaking of rugs, our 18 year-old daughter took the peach colored (crocheted in cotton yarn) rug for her dorm. I just read somewhere that they cannot have rubber backed rugs, so that worked out nicely. So, if you kiddo is heading to college, a handmade crocheted rug would come in handy for her/him. The ones you see on my clothesline are from old sheets, old jeans, and scrap cotton yarn. They all wash up nicely too.
I forgot to dump my ice trays and bag it, so I could freeze all the organic collards I had yesterday. I managed to get half of them froze. I have more to freeze today.
