bunnies, babies and hats

A little something for the new baby
AND
big brother and sister.
;)

These little golden books are GOLDEN OLDIES!
I have "Home for a Bunny"
IMPRINTED on my brain
from the many readings I've done over the years!!

"Where can a bunny find a HOME??"

Amazon has quite of few
classic golden books to choose from.
I bought a few to add to upcoming baby gifts.


This little hat began with some
WONDERFUL yarn (cotton and wool? no tags) 
I picked up at a thrift store.
It was a partial skein...
so I added the Pink/peachy yarn
 to STRETCH it a bit.

********

If you're wondering HOW the story ends...
Bunny DOES find a home.
Thank GOODNESS!

slippery slope

It all began with quilting.
It's a VERY slippery SLOPE folks!
A VERY slippery slope.
 
You think the world is ALL ABOUT quilting.
You dream about quilting...
Almost every night.
;)
 
While YOU are quilting..
Your friends are knitting.
 
You admire your friends who knit.
YOU will NEVER learn to do THAT!
It looks WAY too complicated!
Oh...
Maybe when you're 70 years old..
you'll learn.
 
You can crochet.
A little.

Then....
the UNBELIEVAble happens!
 
You learn a stitch with knitting needles....
and you're OFF!!!!
 
This is my first project.
A baby hat.
 
It's not perfect.
That's O.K.
I LEARNED HOW TO KNIT!!!!!
Did you hear me yelling from the housetop???
 
The WORLD is my oyster!!!
ALL opportunities are OPEN to me NOW!
