Give Darlene Credit

Howdy,
Okay, I think we need to give your mom some serious credit. Tonight while Julie was working on a project I dug out the toothbrush rug tool and pattern I got in Regina. After three false starts I have it somewhat figured out. It's not as easy at they make it out to be. After three hours I have a strip about 18 inches by 2 inches and a wicked hand cramp. It definitely will be a long term project because it's a fabric pig.
What have you been up to?
