These are the goodies I nabbed for PJ at the Apple Festival:
I’m pretty sure Lambchop is not handmade, but the wooden toys are. I like supporting my local crafters. (I just couldn’t resist Lambchop!)

And more!
The weekend before last, I attended the Ashe County Piecemakers‘ Quilt Show in West Jefferson. I don’t know the etiquette on photographing quilts at shows, but I don’t use my flash (because of fading) and I don’t copy anybody’s design. These two were simply snapped for inspiration. One was chosen because it’s a landscape quilt with lots of sparkle, the kind I would like to produce. The other gave me a layout idea for a crib quilt for PJ!

For Example:
My mom loves the old PHOTOPLAY magazines. Here’s what the cover looked like the month she was born. Hmmmn. ‘Wonder if this had anything to do with Grandma naming her “Jean?”

More baby fun!
Here are a couple more things I’ve embellished for my grandson. The organic sleeper above looked mint green on line but arrived a bland color of sage. I found some wonderfully soft bamboo yarn to match for the cap. I hunted up my old waste canvas and cross stitched a little turtle on the chest. Then, I added a little turtle button to the cap.
The white outfit just needed a bear applique to go with “L’oved baby” on the back of the pants.

Ouch!
No new projects of late, I’ve just worked on the baby’s Pooh quilt until my fingers are sore. ‘Time to get out a thimble!

Catching up
Well, it looks like the problem I had with my email hacker is no longer. I am feeling much stronger, finally, after my surgery. I have been working on many projects in my stitchery and knitting (especially for the grandbaby!) and hope to post photos, soon.

BIG NEWS!!!!!
I’M GOING TO BE A GRANDMA! (and I already have a cap and sweater knitted for my grandbaby–Petula models here. The sweater is an easy pattern from Carol Duval that I modified with ribbing to match the cap.)

What I learned about beading on velveteen
1. The beads sit on top of the nap, so there’s lots of wiggle in the design.
2. You can’t use tweezers to remove the waste canvas because it’s too easy to pluck out the pile from the velveteen. It looks moth eaten.
I’ll be salvaging these beads after I make this post.

I deliver!
I hand wash my caps in warm water and Dreft Detergent. I put them in the dryer with a Bounce Free sheet. Then I pop them in a clean zipper bag while they’re still warm. I slap my handmade label on them and deliver them to the birthing center! What a great feeling!
