Accessory Kits

 

 

 

 


Here are the knitting-crochet accessory kit and the tatting kit! They are finally on facebook, e-bay and here. Judy and I are really pleased with the way they have turned out. We hope everyone will visit us on facebook and also our store in e-bay. We are looking for feedback (good and not-so-good) from all of you.

Brittney's Farewell Dinner




Posted by Picasa


Brittney got married on January 8. We had a combination Christmas/farewell dinner for her at the Olive Garden.

Knitting for Charity

There is a new prayer shawl goup that I have joined. It is in Central Point where my tatting and knitting classes are held. In fact, most of the members are former students! We have been knitting for several of the local charities; Maslow Project, several church members and also sending hats and scarfs to Doernbecker's Hospital in Portland. I read on-line about the Appalachia Children's project and now we are also going to donate to them also. Everyone is so open to helping others, it makes my heart happy!

Whitethorn Woods

I have been reading "Whitethorn Woods" by Maeve Binchy. I love her books--they are about everyday life and people from all walks of life. This book is set in a small town on the coast of Ireland. All the people are either from there or have family who imigrated from the area. Her characters are very believable and sometimes I feel I might meet them on the street or sit next to them in church.

Update

It has been awhile since I posted here but hope to do better in the new year. I am still teaching knitting and tatting in Central Point. I have a wonderful group of students who have been with me for over a year. I read a wonderful travel book by Frances Mayes "A Year In the World". I loved it and was depressed when it ended!

Here are several of the dog sweaters. I wouldn't be able to knit any until after the first of the year.
