I feel so good because I just finished clleaning out my kitchen closet. I got rid of some old table cloths. I was afraid of what i might find, but with some cleaning out and wiping, it is much more cleaner and organized. I ran my fingers through my hair and they got stuck. That stuff is most likely from when I snuggled with my grandbaby. All the family was here on saturday and they were all making different things in the kitchen, mostly messes. Somehow we managed to get it clean eventually. I made up a pattern for a crocheted candy kiss holder. It makes up to be about 6 inches high. I will post the pattern later.

a sew day

my 20 year old daughter Heidi suffered a stroke from an avm which is a tangled vein in her brain that she was born with . It was january 26 of last year that this happened. She has come so far since then. It has been a very long and hard journey. She walks with little balance trouble now and her words are much more clear and precisel. If you want to know more about her go to her blog at heidistaynews@blogspot.com. She is presently working on crocheting a hot pink blanket for herself. Her small motor skills seem to be close to normal. My daughter Sarah brought her sewing machine over here. Her mother in law bought her one for her birthday recently and some patterns. She wants me to teach her how to sew something. I had some lime green fabric and gave it to her and she is going to make her 4 year old daughter a dress. We shall see anyway. The grandkids are running from back and forth from the living room to the kitchen.

My headbands and Hats!



These are a sample of my headbands and hats that I have made. My daughter and her friends are the models!
