Thank goodness for the AC!

Just a bit of decoupage in my sketch journal

...I didn't have any alphabet stamps or paint today, 

so used a marker to write the words, 

and colored pencil for the blue background.

7-24-2023 Remote...1898 Hat...

Today I finished and mailed off another 1898 hat.

This one was requested by my NAF brother in Kentucky, Robert.

He sent me a pix of the colors he wanted in his back hat...

so I went shopping for the yarns available,

 and he chose yarn B...

then I asked him if he wanted single/double/or wide row stripes

as in these hats...

And he sent me a sketch of how he wanted the stripes

distributed on his black hat...

and this was the end result...

I hope it fits him and that he likes it!

Every stitch with love!

Yesterday the grandsons went to pick up Teddy's ashes...

I know the ache in their hearts...

I have lost pets too.

There is nothing as amazing as the 

unconditional love a pet gives us.
