Power suits (posted by Ann)

When I got home from work tonight, Don told me that Pumpkin matched me and I remembered that this blouse came with a tie that I never use, so I made her really match. Isn't she a pretty girl?
And here's what I worked on while I was on vacation. Mom and I got the material while she was here for Thanksgiving, and I actually got out the sewing machine and had at it. The curtains were easy, but the tiebacks gave me fits. I love how they look, though, they are yellow during the day but they glimmer in gold when the lights are on at night.


I keep thinking about what a beautiful ball gown this material would make. I don't have anywhere to wear it, but I bought extra material just in case.

I have been knitting, but no pictures today. Next time I promise the finished pink sweater, and a hat and scarf I've been making. I'm not going anywhere this week, but we have big news - Don's airplane is fixed. Remember the airplane crash way back when we first started this blog? Long, long ago? Finally fixed, and he's going to get it this week. I'm not all that thrilled about him being the test pilot with the new engine, but I guess I'm in the Scarlett O'Hara mode with the curtains so I'll worry about it tomorrow.

Hope you are doing well and enjoying your travel. I'm working on New York - I'll let you know what I come up with!
