CD Case Craft

We have a lot of old CD cases stored away. I hot glued 5 into a cube type cubby. To have a cube the size that the bottom would fit, I had to glue the wall about 1/2 inch from the edge. That shrank the cube enough that the bottom then fit enough to keep any items from falling out. 

We will use these in the closet for storage. They are clear making the contents easily visible. 

Egg plant pizza

I try to cut out carbs as much as possible, but I love pizza. So, I got rid of the bread dough crust and used egg plant. I liked it, but I like egg plant. My husband did not like this. He got the regular pizza anyway. 

I made the egg plant pizza the same way as I usually make pizza. Using the egg plant as the crust, I piled on sauce, ham (usually I use ground beef or chicken) and cheese! 

Usually, rock salt is used to remove some of the liquid from egg plant, so if you worry about too much liquid, then use the rock salt and allow it to sit a while to drain.

My Tea Cup Quilt completed

Here is my latest project. It is my lap quilt. I will use it in my chair to help keep my legs warm so they don't lock up as much. Keeping my legs warm helps keep them from getting weak.

Here is a photo of the dogs inspecting my work. I guess the quilt passed because they started to roll around on the quilt. :)

I did have problems with my sewing machine. The feed dogs did not want to work and the quilt practically stood still as I tried to sew on the binding. I had wanted a new machine that could also embroider. I might need a new machine because my old one is breaking down. :(
