Thank God…

…I know how to knit, because I’m going no where any time soon. Yes, that is my car.  The only reason I even know that is because I remember where I parked.  I think… Yeah, it’s mine.  Chris cleared away the snow from in front of the license’s plate.

Talk or Show?

Since I’ve been “gone” for a little while I wanted to fill you all in as to my “where abouts” but I thought, do you really want to hear about that?  Probably not…so why don’t I show you my first finished project of 2010.  I couldn’t be more excited with how well it turned out.   No I haven’t forgotten [...]
