ScrapHappy Saturday - Aquamarine Vibes

 

I am on a bit of a rainbow sewing streak today, but not with my beautiful aqua scraps. Instead. I have finally acquired enough felt to make our homeroom flags for school. I used to get felt from Joann's, so this year had to scramble a bit. Amazon and Michaels both had felt yardage available, but a few of the colors came from separate vendors and the shipping was extra. They aren't a school approved vendor, and that caused a few wrinkles, but eventually, with persistence, I was able to acquire felt! So today I will turn these into flags before school starts on Monday. It is just a bit of quick cutting and one L shaped seam for each flag to make a pocket for the flagpole. It should go pretty quick. 

School starts on Monday. It has been a busy few weeks. I used to just go to preplanning and sit while other people presented before getting my own work done. Now, I am the one presenting, and that takes a bit more effort. Then teachers need things, and I get busy helping and supporting them. But now the kids will be back, and once the teachers are in their classroom teaching, I can get back to getting some of my work done. That is the idea anyway. I will let you know next week how that goes.
