Well I'm putting it down because I'm DONE with my wave afghan project!!! Finally! And I decided to post it to the Crochet Crowd on Facebook. The response has been overwhelming! I have over a thousand likes, countless comments and shares galore! See my post

here, it's free, and there is soooo much eye candy and inspiration!!!
So without further ado, here is Leslie's Scrap Afghan!
And now that this is done I have started another project, and this time it's NOT crocheted! Yeah I know! Wow, but I needed to give my poor hands a small break. In a few short months I will be hosting a table at a formal tea at church, and decorating my own table! So I decided to make some place-mats, I used colors that match my decor at home, so I can use them after the tea.
The blue is leftover from my wedding, and the print I found at Wally World, on clearance! After you cut a front and a back for each place-mat you want to make you pin them right sides together
Then set up your sewing machine. It helps to tape off the measurement so you make sure your seams are the same.
Sew up three sides, and part of the fourth, I left my opening in the middle of a side, it will help camoflauge it in the final steps. Turn them right sides out.
That is as far as I have gotten on them so far, I still have to press them and do the final stitch, more blog on that later!
