Hello Wednesday

I’ve already had a busy week and it’s only Wednesday. On Monday we had our monthly KS My Stitch guild meeting and this month was very special to me; as the founder of KS My Stitch had agreed to do our program for both meetings. We asked her to come and tell us a little bit about herself and how she started the group and why.

Here’s Lana Bennett (the founder of KS MY Stitch) with me and I think she is just adorable and I was so very glad that she could join us again at our June meetings. And, no I’m not that tall, she’s just sitting down. Ha! Ha!

I somehow made four more apple jackets and after getting three people to ask me why and even after I told them that the jackets would protect an apple as you carried it in your bag for lunch, they still didn’t get it. I thought about what else the little jackets might fit on and I reached into my cupboard and pulled out one my drinking glasses and tried one of the jackets on it, voila.

I think they are now some of the cutest little drinking glass jackets I’ve seen in a long time. What do you think? The glass jackets are easily adjustable to different sizes of glasses by just moving the button over to make it smaller or sew the button closer to the edge for a wider glass. I love making them no matter what. The end! (one of Joshua’s favorite expressions and it makes me smile)

While at work yesterday morning, I received a text from my dear niece Angie wanting to know if I had a green or blue crocheted blanket and an earflap hat that she could use to put on Baby Truman for a photo shoot that evening. I wanted to go home right then and there and look to see if I had anything or try and make one really fast for him. But you know my bosses probably wouldn’t understand; so I waited until I got off of work and came home and found a fuzzy blue blanket that I had crocheted around the edge and a blue, gray, white, and charcoal brown striped afghan that I had started at the end of winter (not completed). I also was able to find 4 hats for her to try in different sizes. I gathered them all up and headed over to her house. I think you probably know how proud I was that she would even want to use some of my crocheted things in the pictures?

And I was so happy to be able to help her out by playing and helping Miss Ava with her dinner, while she was feeding Baby Truman and as soon as he was finished

I got to hold and talk to him while she was getting Miss Ava ready.

 

I couldn’t believe Miss Ava didn’t even cry when her Momma was combing her hair. She is such a grown up little girl for only being 2. Anyway, I will be sure and share some of the pictures with all of you when Angie gets them back. How’s your week going? I would love to hear all about it.
