Lately I have had a lot of fun crafting. I have made 6 weighted blankets since about the beginning of November. I really love the words and pictures on the white fabric. I have found it in flannel and soft and minky. However the JoAnn's in Soldotna has been out of the soft and minky version for awhile now. I really have loved making these and have given away all but 1 of them. The 2 below were given away to some special people who I thought could really use one!

I have also been trying to find ways to reduce my impact on the environment. In our area there is a competition call Caring for the Kenai, that we have all students enter.

I finally got around to making them all and now have 10. I found the perfect basket at Walmart to hold them. So that is what I have been up to. Nothing super exciting, but I have definitely been getting better at using my sewing machine. I just got it at the end of October. Bought a used one I found on Facebook Marketplace. All of my other weekends pretty much consisted of the picture below. LOL. Not sure where I found this picture but I think it came from Facebook.
