I don't want school to start!

But it does.  Tomorrow.  We had an amazing summer, and I don't want it to end!!!!  There was no post last week since we went camping.  In the rain!  I kind of enjoy camping in the rain.  I wouldn't complain if it was beautiful and sunny, either. It was fun, as the kids played in the river and lived off of roasted marshmellows and hotdogs!   And I got a ton of stuff worked on!

First up are some pillow covers I made using scraps.  My goal is "no-new fabric." Which didn't work out too well.  But maybe as long as I use more than I buy, I'm fine.  The blue border fabric I had to buy, but that was it.  I have another set in another color scheme for our own house. 

The basket and coaster were also scrap projects, made with out buying anything except the interfacing.   The stash of blue and yellow fabric had developed overtime as I made things for my best friend's kitchen.  I have another of each in different colors to finish this week.  It's kind of fun to make all these up, and then put each pile together and see where our tastes diverge!

  We have also almost finished painting the house!  All we have left is the trim and a little bit of cutting!!! YAY!!

Besides school starting, I'm not sure what will happen this week.  Everyone's schedule is just a little messed up right now!!
