CRAFTS AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY

 Mandie lost her original village I painted for her many years ago, so I have started a new one.  She already has it, so I can show it.  I forgot to take a picture of the people.  Oh well.  I will add pieces as I can get them.

 My cousin, Louise, wanted a lap robe.  She has been grounded with pain in her legs which now they have decided comes from her back.  She is in therapy for it now and doing better.  She doesn't have this yet, but also has no computer.

 The 17th was Bill's birthday.  I cheated and bought the two layer cake, but made him the oatmeal cakes he gets every year.  His favorite and he takes them home.  Eric just lite the cake.

BUSY KNITTING AGAIN

The top sweater I just finished for Eric.  The bottom one for Heidi.  It was going to be for
Christmas, but the package arrives at her house on Sinterklaus day so I told her to go
ahead and open it.  She once told me she can't get brown yarn in Holland.  Eric's is pure
wool but not hers.  She gave  me all her wool sweaters, lucky me.  The front of Heidi/'s
has some of the same patterns as Eric's.  I made the pattern up as I went along.

GETTING THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT

Zoe and her Mom are busy getting ready for Christmas.  Wonder if Abby helped too?

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

My niece posted this on facebook today, it was so cute I had to post it.
It is all made out of veggies.  I am cooking dinner, but I don't think this
turkey will be on my table.

INITIALS FOR GIFTS

 I really love the book I bought for my Indians.  Also in that book is the alphabet and things the
initial stands for.  I did the W and G for Bill to go with the Warrior and Squaw.  To keep the glare off the glass, I have to take the picture from an angle.  (I know Heidi, I shouldn't have glass on them)
I did the M for Mitchell and the H for Haali and took them when I went to Arizona.

It's me again...Lola!

Yep...here I am again taking over the KnittingPaths blog. *grins* Since I know that dear Nancy loves gnomes, I am sure this pattern would be on her list of things to make this year.

Happy Halloween!

CINDY'S REQUEST

Cindy asked me to post the framed Indians when I finished stitching them.  I just finished backstitching the squaw tonight.  Bill helped me frame them.  We had to redo the warrior,
we couldn't get the same color frame.  They said they don't stock it anymore.  I might have
found it at another Joann Fabrics, but the frames were 60% off so easier to just match them

and keep the other one for another day.
