Cousin Becky, also known as the Scrubby Queen, has been stocking our family with these tulle scrubbies for well over a decade now.  Over the years they have become a hot commodity at family gatherings, and family members have espoused the virtues of their use in anything from scrubbing out pots and pans to de-scaling lake trout.  At one point, Becky set a personal goal of make 5 scrubbies a day throughout the course of a year.  That was the year when she started her scrubby of the month club.  So it was with great disappointment and sadness, that at a family reunion earlier this year, Becky announced that she was going to retire from scrubby making.  This announcement was directly followed by her enlisting several family members for her scrubby-bootcamp in the hopes of continuing the tradition.  I ended up being one of them, and decided to record the process before I forget.
