I worked on the other half of the last project's log and made a shallow bowl! It just needs some finish to be applied and I will be calling it done! (Hickory, 11' across)
And the new rock tumbler is up and running and WOW, is it quieter! The other one sounded like a bunch of rocks in a metal garbage can! This one is a quilt swish sound--we are impressed!
How generous of you all to make those bags. As someone who knows first hand how traumatic it is for a child to deal with a parent that is always on the wrong side of the law, those bags could be a real life saver. My dad was a real rip snorter when he was young and I have vivid memories of being alone and scared while the adults sorted his latest shenanigans out. Being a teenage parent in the 50's was not easy for him-or the rest of us. Lucky for us he grew out of it....lol.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for those bags!
ReplyDeleteEMS and the police department appreciate those donations. Kudos to your quilt group.
ReplyDeleteAs the sister of two former EMT's and daughter of one too, I know how appreciated those bags and similar ones are. The poor kids always seem to be caught in the middle during times of crisis. Thank you all for doing this.
ReplyDeleteThe bowl is going to be beautiful with that grain and edge.
I have no idea how a ROCK tumbler can be so quiet but I'm glad it it!
Thanks again for the pattern link.
