I have a drawer rattling with hooks labeled with alphabet soup, and none of it makes a hill of beans worth of sense as far as I can tell.Warty Mammalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07942793134631438689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32145603.post-35928400244240976372009-01-28T10:07:00.000+11:002009-01-28T10:07:00.000+11:00Of course I spotted the Kokeshi!Great photo - woul...Of course I spotted the Kokeshi!<BR/>Great photo - would love another angle!crazyhaberdasherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08212678827504554003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32145603.post-49870485413947739182009-01-28T08:57:00.000+11:002009-01-28T08:57:00.000+11:00Sounds like all went well in spite of the dripping...Sounds like all went well in spite of the dripping temperatures outside!

Not quite sure on what now though??<BR/>I have actually sewn for two nights in a row. Friend and I are making musical stash and slash or whack...whichever is not the Bethany one. And I sat in happy contentment that I had made enough cuts.......then one bloomin block argued for 2 more...so that of course is 2 more for the lot.<BR/>3rd night coming up. I actually sewed this afternoon. While you were playing with wool no doubt...<BR/>I love crochet. Cruel Mother made me learn when I needed a rug in boy friend's car...back before car heaters.....sheesh I am old...and so she made me crochet it..and then I could crochet. Cruel Mothers are good for one.<BR/>I have been blathering...........lolAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32145603.post-50008094451280444992009-01-27T21:09:00.000+11:002009-01-27T21:09:00.000+11:00How awful is the weather!!
