About Lady Gazelle

www.MsGazelle.blogspot.com

I don't have a cell phone but my pager is 800-245-1323 then #5 to leave an unlimited length message with the operator and I'll call you back when I get home.

If you went to my website, you'll see cloth bags filled with rice & lavender to put in the FREEZER to cool down on HOT DAYS or to microwave for sore neck and shoulders, etc.!

I'll make the "Jungle Animal-pattern Bags" with ONLY lavender FREE to PML members.
(Made with no rice is not mentioned on my website... The rice makes them heavier and more expensive to mail.) They are about 9x12 inches made with cotton and everyone here can have them for the cost of postage which is less than $2 without rice.

If you have a sewing machine - you must sew up the top edge on a machine after YOU FILL IT 2/3 with rice, but I'll include the lavender buds to save on postage. I recommend putting the completed rice/lavender bag into the microwave for 3 minutes with a bowl of water to help the "lavender steam" into the air (very relaxing). I will also include a free flannel pillow case (same pattern as the cotton bag) so you can wash it to keep the bag clean.

OR (not mentioned on the website) just use a lavender and COTTON-stuffed "Monkey Sacks" (MS) SACHET ONLY, and I will sew it up for you. If you want to freeze it with rice, I'll sew 4 column rows (shown below) for YOU to add rice AND you must sew the top shut. I'll hand sew the beads on the sides for the pipe cleaners to be inserted and twisted on. Then twist them together around the back of your head after you freeze the rice (won't be TOO cold). Great for headaches or behind your neck while laying down resting.

Here is the pattern for the Jungle Animal rice bags with cover and my Monkey Sack (MS):

About Walking problems

Walking is the act of moving along a surface on foot, step by step, so that one foot is always on the ground, such as when strolling, sauntering, walking forwards, backwards, or sideways. Many conditions and injuries can interfere with the ability to walk.
