Where do these ideas come from anyway??


In my time, I have seen lots of crafty Mormon fads come and go - starting with resin grapes I think!!  When I lived in Utah, I was especially prone to indulge in the latest craft to make.  This habit was aided and abetted by Homemaking nights held monthly in most wards.

Some of them have become family heirlooms - think of Phoebe's cloth Pumpkin Trick or Treat bag, or the jeweled Christmas tree, or the batting snowman and snowlady - which I actually got rid of one year.

Well, once there was a fad called make yourself a robe/dressing gown/dress/beach coverup  made from three towels - one for the front, one for the back and one for the bodice.  I think Roseann introduced the fad into our family.

I will say this, it was comfortable - and it washed up nicely!
