Purple dress sequel

It went from this:to this:Meredith fell in love with a purple dress that I made her 2 years ago. It had turned into a rag because it was washed so many times. It literally fell apart - holes in it, seams coming apart. At the beginning of the school year, she decided that the purple dress was her favorite and she wore it every day. Needless to say, very few fabrics are designed to stand up to this kind of favoritism. So, I have replaced the old purple dress with a new purple dress. Meredith was thrilled when I finished this one today. It was so much fun for me to be able to put THIS smile on her pretty little face. We'll see how long THIS purple dress lasts!!!

Hand Warmers
















I knit these hand warmers this past week for my friend Rhonda. I love the color combination! It spoke "her". This is the second set of hand warmers that I have knit. The first one was for my mom, and I made them out of purple and green; (I gave them to her before I got a picture of them). I love knitting for other people and picking out colors that will "go" with them as people. I think for both Mom and Rhonda the color combos turned out great!
