Ah! So that's the trick. You print off what you like & file them in notebooks but the web address is still there to share with everybody. I need to get some ink for my desktop printer so I can do this. Say you have 12 notebooks, 12 subjects to file. I can see how that would work. Thanks for the good idea.
Hugs, Jane

For Babies, instead of hair I take bonnet colour and start as for head Pattern making a hat. Stop when it is the size you want. I do a shell edging as last row for girls. Then I sew this to head instead of stringy hair for very young children.

Janie, I don't collect crochet patterns. I have so many crochet books that I have gotten over the years ..I don't need more. If I see someone is searching for something...I just go on a search. armybrat seems to know where a lot is..I sure miss her!!

Val,
I miss Armybrat, too. Maybe she will be back soon. She is like Sarah, she seems to know her way around the internet really well. I believe that is a real plus when you are looking for patterns, free or not. Maybe 1 day I'll be good at it.
Hugs, Jane

Hey Jane-
I'm not sure yet what I will charge for the horse purse. She agreed we would talk about everything after the holiday because we are both so busy right now. I am still hoping to get everything done by my deadlines. Eeeeeek!
I talked to my oldest daughter the other day and she asked if we wanted to keep Gwen (the 5 yr. old) thru' Christmas vacation. YES!!!!! When they lived in the Kansas City area near us we had Gwen almost every weekend unless they went out of town to visit other relatives so we got VERY close to Gwen and she got VERY close to us. Then they moved out of state and now they're 3 1/2 to 4 hours away and my daughter got a new job with days off during the week and her husband has different days off so well you know how that goes....all our daughters and grandchildren live in the same town so we don't see them very often anymore. We really miss them a lot. It's hard for us to get away as well because my husband works a lot of hours because he's a supervisor and the other guy can't be trusted to do everything he's suppose to do. Ron hasn't taken actual vacation time off for over a year. So when we have a chance to get the girls we take it!
Happy Holidays Jane!

Hi Ivy-
No I didn't put lining in the animal purses but I don't think they need it considering how they are made. The bottoms are enclosed and pretty thick. I don't think anything could fall thru'. Altho' I guess if you wanted to put a pretty lining in you probably could. I thought the patterns were fairly easy to make. If I can do it believe me, anyone can do it. I'm sure you could make them as well.
Happy Crocheting!

Hey Jane you made me laugh! You hit that right on the nail about girls being a pain 99% of the time. I wouldn't know what it's like to have a boy. I had all girls and then got three granddaughters bam, bam, bam. Didn't know what to do when I got a grandson last June. I'm happy about it but it's taken some getting use to. I have enjoyed making little boy things now and look forward to making more in the future. I know the girls absolutely love the things I make for them and keep me on my toes with stuff they want. I don't let them look at my stash of patterns or I'd never make anything for anyone one else or any of my charities! HEE HEE! Little girls are so demanding!!!! (Big girls are too!!!)
Have a blessed day!
Angel
