    Wow! you have been busy. Quilted placemats are a nice gift, I am sure they were appreciated. I would be able to complete more if I didn't tear every item out at least 10 times.

    I am happy to hear you will be around for a long time. I would love to see your finished afghans. I don't have the patience to do large projects. As I am working on one I am trying to hurry so I can do something else. That is why I like baby and toddlers clothes they don't take too much time to make.

    I have 2 older granddaughters that I made bikini's and beach sandals for them but that was all so far. I have saved some of the patterns that Choiyuk (On this forum) that she posted and I need to work on some of those. My oldest granddaughter likes vintage clothing.

    Thank you for your kind words. When I can get at the basket with my crochet (It's hiding until after the holidays. haha), I'll take a photo for you. One of the afghans is made with a pattern that looks like crochet bobbles, but is very, very soft and makes a wonderful baby blanket or throw that is very easy and works up quickly.

    I just love that beautiful little sweater. I hope the child wears it til it's full of holes - and still decides to keep it.

    Happy New Year MeToo, Thank you for your compliment. I don't know if she will wear it too much as the other day it was 70 degrees here. They are at Disney in Florida this week for the holidays. I think there is more cold weather to come so maybe she will get some more wear out of it. Since I used a smaller hook it is a really heavy and warm sweater maybe to hot for this climate.

    Thanks for your post,
    Spoula

    OMG, that is soooooo awesome. It should go on a doll when she outgrows it. When I was working, I mentioned to my boss that if a had such an outfit I would keep it forever. On retiring he gave me a stuffed bunny for my bed and for over thirty years I have made my bed--it meant that much to me. That sweater is a keeper!!!!!
