Shawl for. 95 year old's birthday.
It was made for a petite little woman. My girl friend is modeling she's 5'9 with broad shoulders. It should be fine. She was one of my new students last night. I taught them the knit stitch. Ugh one of them was a lefty.

Great Baby Shower Gifts.
The quilts both fit the colors and theme of the nursery The princess fabric was a great score on eBay. I always use flannel on the back to make it soft.

Integrating the past and the present. Change is good.
It has been quite sometime since I have posted anything. I had some life changing things happen. The biggest is retiring after working since I was 16. (Currently 64). I am still adjusting. I still get up at 4 and who knows that may never change. The upside....I can nap whenever I please. I continue to quilt mostly lap quilts and my favorite baby quilts but I have also developed a new love for knitting. I have a wonderful group of former co-workers that I get together with to knit and a student. Yes, I am now sharing my love for both quilting and knitting with others and hope to do much more. All of my family's Christmas gifts were knitted by me and I'll share pics as I go along.
Going forward I will incorporate both quilting and knitting on this blog. So I hope you enjoy and share my blog with friends and share your work with me.
