Prompt/Challenge Title: Chaser
Project Name & Page Link: Hopeless Ramen-tic Basket
Team: Moose Jaw Meteorites
Brief Description: My husband’s family does a reunion each year, and host a raffle to help raise money for the next reunion. I usually make something to donate (like last year’s Rose Garden Quilt), but since I was out of crafty commission this year, I went with gift baskets. I didn’t have a specific plan; I just went to Home Goods and let the Universe guide me. I ran into several asian food items, in shades of blue/purple. After that, I went a bit nuts. I found the basket at Goodwill for $3, but it was a sickly, faded country-goose blue, so I spray painted it black. Then I checked out PopShelf and one of the many Asian grocery stores in town to find a few more goodies to add in. I made signs in Affinity, and had them printed at Walgreens Photo.

Team: Moose Jaw Meteorites
Brief Description: Hemming these pants kept me safe from tripping over the incredibly long legs. There was enough silk leftover that I think I can even make a few scrunchies from it!
Prompt/Challenge Title: Teamwork
Project Name & Page Link: Basket of Sunshine
Team: Moose Jaw Meteorites
Brief Description: While looking around Home Goods, I kept seeing lots of yellow items, and it reminded me of the Box of Sunshine swaps, so I also did a Basket of Sunshine. Some of the items include elderflower lemonade, honey sesame sticks, lemon olive oil, churro popcorn, lemon almonds, meringues, wafers, and hard candies, and some silk sunflowers.

Project Name & Page Link: Hem Blue Silk Pants
Team: Moose Jaw Meteorites
Brief Description: I was fascinated when I saw these pants available on Darn Good Yarn. They are made from recycled saris, and most importantly, they now have pockets! (Something their wrap skirts don’t have.) I cut off enough to make a couple scrunchies from this pair too.

Brief Description: I finished the tops, and the quilting on these, a few months ago. They’ve just been sitting on my desk, awaiting binding. I loved being able to cross them off the mental To Do List, and getting closer to a clean studio!
