When they get to go out to pasture for the first time since the Winter started they are very excited. To mark this monumental occassion, the crew at the farm put together a fabulous event. We all [...]

She Found a Fun Kids Book January 12, 2008
Posted in great kids books, Just stuff, patterns, Sewing on January 13, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Husband was looking for a specific winter book at the library, was unable to locate it as it was already out with someone else. But he does have it on reserve and did find several others to bring home and see if they are good. We find most kids books are not. Most of them [...]

The mail came and the Swap Package has arrived!! I’m so excited. My partner and I were both a bit late on the sending, so it worked out well we were paired together. This is what arrived! One of her traditions is to make pinecone/peanut butter/birdseed ornaments, with her son, to hang outside for the [...]
She made an Apron, Pj’s and 2 hats January 8, 2008

I told you that I gave up on the shawl for mom, that it just wasn’t working the way I wanted. Well, I decided to make her an apron instead. She gets dressed up for work, and owns her own business, so she’s often putting together dinner between appointments (in her good clothes). She has [...]
She found an adorable hat pattern and is wishing for knitting time to make all the cool things she has yarn for January 5, 2008

I’ve found some fun new blogs lately, some of which I’ll probably be adding to my left column soon, and have been hopping about. By doing so I found this very adorable hat, that I want to make for my little girl. I love the little applique too. So cute. I think the pattern lends [...]

Mini was too tired to help with the quilt by the time we had the time to work on it, so instead we played with her train set and read books. But after she went to bed I was able to sew it all together and it is fabulous! It’s exactly what I wanted for [...]
She found a brilliant skirt tutorial! November 1, 2008
Posted in Knitting, patterns, Sewing on November 1, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Hubby had to run an errand tonight. He was gone all of half an hour, and in that time, I found fabric, coordinating ribbon, elastic, and made a complete skirt for Mini! All before he came home. This tutorial is brilliant. I don’t think it’s possible to make a more simple skirt, in less time [...]

I finshed the bloomers and started a black linen version of that tunic I showed you yesterday. I’m making the sleeves a bit different. I thought it would be more fun if they were full and had elastic at the wrist, so I’m seeing if I can do them that way instead. I’m into flowy [...]
She had her scissors sharpened! October 28, 2008

I have about 5 pair of fisker scissors. I am an awful abuser of said scissors. I know I’m supposed to only use them for fabric, and that they should be kept safely in the sewing area, but the reality is, I grab whatever is handy. I’ve even been know to cut thin wire with [...]

I finally got the garlic planted. I think I went a bit overboard with how much space I took up for the garlic, but mom and I think we have a solution…till up more field! We planted 2 pounds of garlic today. I brought my camera out, but totally forgot to take any pictures. Dad [...]
