Christmas Day Fun

Gram came out and spent the day with us--she was very helpful in our mitten making. I loved the fact that we cut up old felted sweaters to make these mittens.
Here are the sweaters that our friend Brooke was able to purchase at $5.00 bag days. We still have lots a fabric and will be sewing lots of items. My mind is running a mile a minute thinking up ideas.


Sorting through buttons is so fun. It always reminds me of Aunt Donita--she has a great button stash


Brooks mittens progressing along


First finished pair--Gram and I figured out a few ways to make the pattern fit better.

Yay for felting & Crafty Girls! :)

I've been poking around your blog over Christmas break - how fun to catch up with you and see pictures of all your crew. Thanks for sharing with me *HUG*

Are you on Ravelry.com yet? I tried to find you but didn't make much progress :-( Every time I'm there I think of you and Grammer!
