This set is destined for the 2025 Christmas box (should I duck and run after saying that??)...
The hat pattern is THIS one (I purchased the one that has multiple sizes - 0-3 months up to Adult Large) and the mitten pattern is in the Paton's booklet "Next Steps Seven". Yarn is Vanna's Choice.

- I need to be reminded of how to do THIS so thought perhaps some of you might as well.
- THIS looks like a nice bag tutorial.
- There's a really good article HERE for making a jacket out of a recycled quilt.
- Julierose posted a brilliant idea for using papers (phone book pages, actually!) in her piecing. Maybe it's common knowledge but it's the first time I've heard of it! Read her post HERE.
Today's quote..."My desire to be well informed is currently at odds with my desire to remain sane"
A note regarding the political situation happening south of us and spilling over into the rest of the world....I intend to keep this blog as free from politics and the general fear that's going on right now as I can. I feel that it's important that there are places we can go that are safe from the strife and, although I feel strongly about what's going on, I will try to stay away from dwelling on it here. Suffice to say, RC and I will be buying Canadian as much as possible from now on, maybe not a huge help but something we, as individuals, can do. I will be changing my 'sign off' graphics to not only reflect my support for the Ukraine but also a Canadian Flag in support of my own country.
