You have no idea what a little thrill it gives me to hear people say "I wish I could do that" because I've struggled with the knitting for so long and wished I could "do that" so many times!! I've still got a long way to go in figuring out some patterns (confusing to me), but I'm slowly making progress.

Poor Humpty Dumpty got packed into a drawer today :( I keep holding onto these things for when I (one day) have a sewing 'room' again and I'll be able to display these pieces that don't really fit anywhere else in my house. The only downside to acquiring my sewing room is that one of my children have to permanently leave home first.September Violetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10931133319044031928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4062746784364845999.post-63190920805396096612013-02-26T20:55:27.261-05:002013-02-26T20:55:27.261-05:00Thanks Gaia, I'm not sure which I like better,...Thanks Gaia, I'm not sure which I like better, knitting/sewing or photographing the projects at the end!
