How to Clean Sheet Pans

My daughter-in-law sent food down in a sheet pan; it was almost identical to the one in this video. I also tried it on a copper bottom stainless steel pan (of which I have several that are over 50 years old). I didn't think to take before pictures but I posted the results below of my first two pans! I am going through all my old pans to give them a good cleaning. This time I will post before and after pictures. Click on the link below for instructions:

DIY Phone Pouch No Sew - Old Jeans into Pouch

Now that I have my very first smart phone I need to make myself a phone pouch . . .

I finally finished it!

I think I actually crocheted this newsboy hat at least six times before I got it right.

Thanks to Super Glue...

Some time back I reupholstered the seats and backs to two card table chairs. I lost the specialty nuts to fasten these in place; couldn't find them in stores so I tried super glue--worked like a charm.

Ummm, will have to add Quilting to my Needlework tab . . .

I can't wait to start quilting again. OMG her videos are amazing, funny, and touch on many things beside quilting. I have tried a few quilt blocks in the past. I took a quilt class at JoAnn Fabrics in 2003; a male customer in the store picked out my colors. My second was Pat Sloan's "Where Are Your Shoes and Socks 2006 BOM. The third was a Mary Englebreit quilt swap in March 2006. The second and third sets of quilt blocks are still not assembled into a quilt.

Wobbly Truck

I won't be making any more trucks . . .need I say more?

More Beanies . . .

The green yarn has a fuzzy texture to it and I found it hard to work with (made lots of mistakes). I wanted to learn how to do stripes which requires lots of changing colors (second beanie). Margaret Olander has updated her video whereas you don't have to cut the yarn when switching colors. You can find it here:

What to do with my leftover fleece . . .

Why not make a hat? I found the tutorial for this hat on YouTube.

It was fun and didn't take long to make . The hardest part was in figuring out how to download the pattern .

Happy New Year to all!

One of us wanted an onion. Aaaagh! One of us couldn't go there! Doesn't take much to make us happy. Being good Democrats and Republicans...we figured it out.
