Yarn Along



Oh my friends!  A week away!  Just crazy.  There has been knitting happening and I have set a finish date of the end of July.  At that point what is done is done.  It should be fine.

109 days until the wedding and we are now in VERY busy mode.  Every day more details to attend to.  The napkins are complete and quite pretty I think.  Some special sewing is going on that again I have to keep secret, but you'll see at some point.

My best friend arrives Friday and we are going to churn out 4 little flower girl dresses.  I have the bodices sewn already, so it is the skirts and monogramed sashes that need to be finished. And the first wedding shower is Sunday and I'm so happy Betsie will be here.  We raised our 8 combined children side by side and in close and far away distances.  Thirty three years we've been the best of friends and even though distance still keeps us apart, we just pick up where we left off each time we are together.

Look for lots of pictures soon!!  Linking up with Ginny!

  2. I loved reading your blurb about yourself in the side bar...."I am trying to discover who I am. No longer needed in the same ways, I am off to re-invent .......mother." That is exactly where I am, well, will be as of July 12. I send my last child off to college and am finding it difficult to figure out what comes next. Congratulations on the wedding! and lovely knitting!
