Remote Holder


I needed a remote holder to collect my remotes. I liked the design of the craft bag I made so I modified it and made it smaller. It uses the same knots as the larger bag. I used Natural hemp #1972 cord, 16 3 yard cords for the body and 8 3 yard cords for the strap. If you wanted a strap for carrying I would use 6-7 yard cords. The holding cord is about a foot.
Here is a picture of the body of the bag in progress. When complete I will fold it in half to make the bag body.

Macrame' Bag


I recently made a new craft bag for myself. It's big and blue. It incorporates over 237 yards of craft cord. It uses a Lark's head, Square, Double half hitch, and Half hitch. I think I spent about 8 hours on it.

The cords were so long that I improvised a rack to hang it on while I worked on it. I used a cross stitch stand. I clamped a yardstick in the stand clamp. I used two large metal paper clamps to hold each edge of my holding cord, I stiffed the middle in the clamp with the yardstick. It worked really well.

Macrame' & Raggz

Raggz likes to keep me company while I work. Sometimes he can be a little persistant about attention if he thinks I have been working to long and not petting him enough. :) Here is is with my current project in progress.

I have started working on our church groups website: Mosaic. It has been fun so far, I'm going to need some ideas for it, though. :)
