I used to make and sell a lot of bedroom dolls and trinket box dolls. (Fancy senoritas and southern bells
). I'm expecting another grandchild in the spring, so I will get to some of the baby stuff-I hope soon. This year with the economy the way it is, I decided to make all my Christmas gifts. Many of them will be crotchet I imagine, but I might get funky and do some painting and other crafting. (I have a special craving to do one of those little pine cone Christmas trees embedded in a plaster of Paris base.
And cookies are always a favorite.
You know what would be a good idea?! If we started this coming January, settled on a pattern and each made a big square each month. That would give us 24 squares. I could send you mine the first year and you could sew them together and donate to a nursing home or anyone you think would enjoy the thought and the warmth!
Wouldn't that be a good idea?. (You'll have to press me on this; I have good ideas all the time (I mean well as they say), but I would do it if you're interested. It's only one square a month. You pick the afghan pattern. Just a plain granny square is O.K. with me or whatever.
Anyway, how's the ferry business? I got myself involved in trying to save the local library, so that takes up some of my time.
Good talking with you.
