Jell Roll Rug Epic Fail...

 I decided to try my luck at making a Jelly Roll Rug...

My first and last attempt...

 

 To start with I actually sewed my finger in my machine -

it punctured my nail (ouch-that hurt!)

I almost quit the project then but I powered through.

The prints were fun to work with and luckily I got the jelly roll on

 clearance at Joanne's...because...

My edges turned out wanky! (not happy about that)

It will not lay flat - I think I pulled on the fabric too much and stretched it :(

I have been sewing for years but this one didn't quite go right!

Any suggestions for helping this rug lay flat - can I use it to create something else?

Or is this just a toss out???

Let the dehydrating begin...

The goal:

Chili Mango Jerky (yummm)

Dried Apples (always so good)

Dehydrated Lemons (great to adorn beverages)

Lovin' my dehydrator!

Stay Cozy,

A precarious post...

 As I began to create a new post I was forced to stop dead in my tracks by this unwelcomed visitor cruising across my screen!

I must admit... I am not a fan of spiders!!!

My hubby was asleep so I had to dispose of this creepy creature myself! Aaaahhhhh

Stay Cozy,

Rainbow Storage...

 I came upon these lovely storage boxes while perusing by local thrift store.

And at only $2...I couldn't resist.

 I must say...it was a bit therapeutic putting 

them together!
