Other Uses for “Stuff”

It’s always kinda funny to me when we use products other than for their intended purpose. Remember all this 3M Post-it Tape that Vince bought for me to label my frozen food?

My friend, Elaine, recently showed me that she uses this tape for labeling fabric, blocks, etc. Great idea! It stays, peels away and leaves no residue and you can write on it. I’m not sure where it can be purchased but Office Depot has it. What I’ve been using is the “6 line” tape.

The other thing I can’t do without is Extra Virgin Olive Oil. A while back, a nurse practitioner in town told me to use it in my bath water. No way am I scrubbing that bath tub so I never used it but then I read about using EVOO for dry skin. Oh, my . . who’d ever have thunk it? 🙂 My skin just drinks this stuff, doesn’t leave any greasy residue and feels so good!

And, just so you know I’ve been doing something quilt related, I finished this quilt today. It’s for a customer so I’m not showing the front but here’s the back. Click on the picture to get a larger image.  I don’t use the Baptist Fans template enough but every time I do it, I remember how much I love them.
