Fabric must-haves

Would these fabrics make my life complete? Probably not, but they make me smile!

Little projects

I made a new puppet bag for E with some of Mom's fabric (3/4 yd). I also made 8 little beanbags for the kids fair at church (1 yd). They were 5x5 bags filled with popcorn. I used the Noah's Ark fabric that I got for E's diaper bag in '97.

I also mended one pillow case dress and made 4 more. These are out of queen-sized cases and fit the bigger girls nicely.
