I saw an old lady out on a local bus wearing one, seemed to be made from mohair-ish knitted material with some pretty beads sewn on, gave me ideas for what to do with my stash of "scrap" jumpers!Landgirlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259455441759015869.post-69174704523026273362012-09-13T13:04:09.409-04:002012-09-13T13:04:09.409-04:00I'm very excited- I loved your first semester ...I'm very excited- I loved your first semester products, and hats are a real item of interest for me.

By the way, when I disassemble that board, I file all the photos etc in a folder because I know I will need something from there in the future! You are living a dream that I held for a long time. The FIT experience. Now I am as old as dirt and it is not an option so I am living vicariously through you, keep those posts coming, you are my hero.*** By the way also, I took my copy of your book to my Quilting group meeting on Tuesday, (lots of ladies 60 + up to 80's) they loved you, your interpretations and your look.
