Field Trip

Mr. B and I often go for rides just to get out of the house. Today we drove to Carnation, Washington to the Tolt Yarn Shop. Of course, I cannot walk into a yarn shop without making a purchase. Today's purchase was some super soft Marino wool, a pattern and ornaments.

This will be a gift.
I have two scarves to finish. This will be my next project. Mr. B is Such an enabler.

Dolls for foster girls

I challenged my Pierce County Clothing and Textile (CTA) group to make doll clothes for four 18 inch dolls. I wanted a show box full of clothes for each doll. They made of bought enough clothes, undies, shoes for seven dolls. And each doll will have a wide variety of clothes. My cat Simba helped me separate the items. What a fabulous group, and what a fabulous Christmas seven little girls will have. They did this in one month!!!

New beginnings

Well, I have decided to try blogging again. It has been a long time. I am joining a UFO challenge group this year and a 12 new things challenge. Some of my charity goals for 2019 include 100 hats, 100 pillowcases, and 12 doll outfits. In 2018 I did 75 pillowcases with help from friends, 100 hats were divided between Wishing Well (foster children) and my daughter's elementary school and four doll dresses. I want to learn to make doll uggs and boots and do some Norwegian knitting.
