Hart's Hope

Hart's Hope Book Cover

I finished reading Hart's Hope by Orson Scott Card. Another good book that I enjoyed. I didn't care for the ending style and I don't want to spoil what that was here but I thought it could have been closed out different.

The Worthing Saga

The Worthing Saga Book Cover

I finished reading The Worthing Saga by Orson Scott Card. I liked this book just like all the other ones of his that I have read. I liked the fact that it had some of the shorts added to the end even if they weren't corrected back to the main story line. At least the Author's note at the end explains that, but that note should have come before the shorts. It was a little weird to read the shorts which didn't match up and then read later why.

How to make a simple draw string bag

Ditty bags

I needed a couple of very simple bags to hold a couple of kids kites so I decided to design and make them. The design is very simple and can be put together in less than an hour.

Materials you'll need:

  • fabric
  • color matching thread
  • draw string
  • cord lock
  • Optional: double fold bias tape

My Sister's Keeper

My Sister's Keeper Cover

I just finished reading My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult. This is an interesting book with a twist at the end but it is almost predictable. Not a genre I'm usually reading and I doubt I'd read any more of her books though I think I saw like 20 at the book store the other day.
