Zippered Bags And Blimps


I obtained some zippers (like 30 of them) at Joann's last night and decided to play! I found a cute little tutorial on the Internet for making a lined zippered pouch. Can I just say, I LOVE the Internet? There are SO many free patterns and tutorials out there! There is almost no need to actually buy a pattern anymore!!

Here is my new little pouch- these things are addicting!! I want to just keep making and making them! I have been eyeing my fabric stash all day, looking for fabric combinations that would work for pouches. I could probably turn all my fabric into pouches right now, I'm so enthused about this little pouch :)


I also did some housecleaning today (boring, I know!). While I was outside shaking the rugs the Goodyear Blimp flew over! I looked at the pictures of the three different blimps on the Goodyear website and determined that it was the "Spirit Of Goodyear" blimp. I have no idea where it was coming from or where it was going. But it was nice to have the Blimp there for coverage of my housecleaning event :)

Not too much else. We had 2 thunderstorms overnight last night, and of course I woke up for both of them. So I'm really tired tonight- it might be another 8pm bedtime night! I'm going to make bee blocks tomorrow- I have three of them to do, and I don't want to get behind like I did last month. I also want to quilt my DQS7 top, but I'll see how the bee blocks go first!

  2. The blimp was going to the city, it was outside of my work window this afternoon! By the way, the "connect to twitter" keeps popping up when I click on things in your site.
