A Tuesday WIP
Sunday is Mason's 5th birthday. With everything going on (back-to-school stuff, soccer, trips, etc.) I had almost forgotten about his party. I made a few phone calls and sent a few emails and his party is now happening on Friday. (I really shouldn't use the term "planned," because I'm still planning it.)
Last year I made drawstring bags for his party favors, as you may recall. This year I decided to make pencil rolls for his party favors. They are fun and practical. Two very important features. (And isn't that fabric cute?)
So last night, as soon as the children were in bed, I sat down on the floor to cut some fabric. Enough fabric for 16 pencil rolls (including my five oldest). Almost two hours later, I could barely stand up. My back has been bothering me (and my neck) for a few days and I think sitting on the floor just did me in. It stinks to be old.

And I feel your pain. I can't straighten up if I sit on the floor cutting or at the computer for more than an hour. Yikes! Feel better!
and i can't believe you made 16 pencil rolls for a party in 3 days. take care of that back!
I feel your pain regarding your back and neck I use to be in constant pain with my neck with all the sewing I do until I got one of those contour memory pillows. They really do work. What about using your dining table instead of the floor?
I wanna come to the party!!!
Getting old stinks.
and you in floors, lady. the last time you sat on the floor you got that big fluid-filled thing on your elbow.
Take care of your back! : )
Also, if you are interested in buying those Japanese books I have on my blog, just email me, and I can give you more details. The price of those I bought ranged from $15 to $20 with free shipping.
