I thought I wasn't going to the doll conference next year - until a friend reminded me that it's not so much about the classes but about the friendships! (THANK YOU, JULES!)
Printed off my forms and will have them in the mail today. You have never lived until you have been at a conference with a bunch of folks that are just as NUTS as you are!
THEN I looked at the pile of yarn staring at me. The Loopy Ewe (a yarn shop in Ft. Collins, Colorado that does amazing mail order) decided to have a challenge. Not just any challenge but back to school! We have 3 projects to finish by the end of the "semester" (meaning December 31st). That was 3 days ago. This morning, I have a new chapeau!
This was a FUN knit and it took me 2 days and 1 evening. I would guess there's about 14 hours in that hat (but I'm a pokey knitter).
Next project: A beaded cowl! I'm a sucker for bling. Just like a little friend of mine that used to carry off all things shiny! Tessa was a tortie kitty that we had rescued many years ago. We lost her to kidney failure in January of 2012. When we went to remove a pocket door between our kitchen and dining room, we found one of her hiding places. See what she saved for us to find:
It was a wonderful reminder of a loving pet that touched our hearts for almost 15 years. WE MISS YOU, TESSA!
