Super Saturday Projects

Victoria and I made these in our Super Saturday. She made one for Halloween and I will add to this post when I can get a picture of it. What do you think? Do you want any? We are having a family Craft Day on Nov 11th to make a bunch.
Some of them made fridge magnets from glass beads and clothespins with scrapbook paper.
Or worked on other vinyl projects like Family Home Evening or Family Chore Boards . . .
. . . and blocks that say Home and Love.
. . . and Beaded watchbands.
Laura Jensen Taught us how to make potato and cheese Perogies and then we ate them, cabbage rolls and Apple Crisp for lunch. Here she is teaching us how to shape them.
Perogies served with sourkraut and sausage.
Perogies served with bacon and onions.

Apple Crisp with ice cream and a drizzle of Carmel sauce. Ummmm good.

Grandma is making cut Bags!

Grandma has made a few of these Amy Butler bags that she has given away.

Now she is working on this pattern from Me and My Sister Designs called Juliet.
She is enjoying making these individualized as she uses up some of her many notions and materials. This one is Adina's.
This one has all the ladies oohing.
Ok Natalie, here is Grandma's design question. She originally used this Michael Miller floral with the yellow sash but felt it was too busy.
She wondered if it would be better with a black and white dot band where the pink pokadot is?
This is what she settled on but wondered what you thought?

Japanese Paper Tape


Little Birdie Secrets has a post about Japanese Paper Tape available in Japan and she found a US vendor at Ginko Papers. This is the first have heard of it but it sounds interesting. It is used in scrapbooking and is kind of like masking tape but doesn't lift your paper if you are careful, supposedly. I've never used it but check out the post on Little Birdie Secrets.
