    Default who has this much stuff?????

    digging through my scraps to see what I had to make the teeny tiny zippered pouches. Lots of scraps, but who has 20+ zippers and 7 sets of hardware already in their "stuff". Now I have to go get more hardware to work on the other 13 I already have matched up. More shopping at the thrift store or craft store.

    Me . I'm always buying zippers Just In Case. All sizes and colors. I refuse to go count them though. I shoved all the hardware I have in a drawer so can't tell you how much there either.

    I have never thought to hit up a thrift store for supplies...interesting.

    I look at the bags and only buy the ones that are half off that day and priced $2 or less. there is 2 sets of hardware on the handles and sometimes there is that extra key chain on the inside as a bonus.

    Do buy continuous zips by the metre/yard and just cut to size required. SO much cheaper that way. I have them in lots of different colours.

    ok, I made 2 so far. the blue one is cut 5x 3 1/2 like the pattern says. The dark one is 6x 4 1/2. I also discovered that I like the key ring on the one end instead of the closed D ring. I can use the key ring to attach it to the handle of my purse if I want. Can't do that with the closed D ring. That leaves the clip free for other things. You could use the clip to attach too, so not really that big a deal.
    I think I will try 5 1/2x 4 and see how I like that size.

    Be warned. I am BORED.
    This could be dangerous.

    When you get cold just go stand in the corner.
    They are usually 90 degrees.

    A giraffe's coffee would be cold by the time it reached the bottom of his throat.
    Ever think about that? No? You only think about yourself??
