I've been meaning to make a pillow that could easily be restuffed (and washed) instead of constantly sewing up holes in my old pillows. I procrastinated for a long time and finally when I sat down to do it today, I forgot that I was going to add a zipper... anyways, it's not pretty but hopefully it will be workable. I'll probably use a safety pin or something to hold the zipper in place when I wash it.

Bread bags
This was a new project, not an old one to finish, but it was a quick one. I made two bread bags for my sibling who was visiting. They often get bread at Whole Foods and it goes through a slicer and then you slide it into a bag. This was so they can stop having to use the plastic bags. I'm not sure if they're the right size, but I DID spend extra time on actually rolling over the seams and making them look nice (only broke one sewing machine needle lol).
This bag was just plain muslin. I'm worried it's a little too small, especially the opening, to fit over the bread slicer.

More In Progress
More projects in progress, but no completions yet.
| Crocheting a new belt - not sure if I will finish before I run out of yarn. |
| Crocheting together my random pieces of knitting. |
| Taking apart my abortive attempt at an afghan and changing over to knitting squares instead. |

In progress
Finally getting back to projects that have been sitting for more than a year. This will be the next one. Unfortunately, while I have a pattern and detailed counts of the pieces, I did not exactly leave detailed notes of how the squares and cream/red strips combined. Oh well.
