[Nfb-krafters-korner] soap sacks

[Powers, Terry (NIH/OD/DEAS) [E]]

A bit off topic!

I found a wash cloth at Walmart with a ruff side.  It is good for dry skin and inbedded dirt, like on ancles and feet.  I love it.

Oh you have to know my Husband. He was a big strong man. Now he is less then half his weight and everything that touches him causes pain. I have to put pillow cases on the arms of his chair. But as weak and sick as he is, he has strong opinions. One that pertains to this subject is, you can't used the soap sack twice in a shower. He had to have a clean one each time he showered. lol

I am anxious to make the one with skipped pegs.
