Working on some fun items

Yesterday I worked on some of my items for our family reunion auction.  It is fun to see what everyone brings each year, and even more fun to see what sells high!!  It is always a surprise.  I am taking aprons and rag-quilt bags.  I did the sewing on 1 bag and 2 aprons yesterday.  I still have to get the closure for the bag and the decorations for the apron pockets.  I still have a few more things to finish up before the reunion in a couple of weeks. 
Here are some pics of what I did so far. 
I also finished up a layout I was doing for the retreat challenge.  Finally got the pics mounted on it.   Now to just finish all the pics for Jenna's trip so it can be put in her book. 
My daughters have decided to have a yard sale next week, so my craft room is a total disaster!!  Good thing I cleaned it and organized it a few weeks ago - gave them more room to fill up.  LOL
I am thinking it will be a good day to put out some of my "items that I'll never use" and see if I can find my closets and shelves again. 
Here is a pic of the layout I did.  I thought it turned out pretty cute and I was using up things I had in my stash for at least 6 months.
