I was going to leave this morning, but my son wanted me to go shopping with him. So I went to the Amish market. I bought a stuffed pork chop for supper. They are really big, so one if enough for two people. I picked up some creamed spinach to go with it. I also got ham spread, macaroni salad, cheese and cheese bread for Sweetums.
Since it’s so cold out, I went on down to Jo Ann’s and bought a Lucy Neatby DVD. I got ribbon feet from Viking. They look like fun. Darn. Now I am thinking about sewing and wishing I had brought a machine with me. I had just cut out a bunch of squares for a little quilt before I left home and I really want to get back to it.
I do have my knitting. I forgot to bring extra needles for the hat. I am working on the decreases and finally had to stop. So I am working on the mitered sweater. Miters are fun to do and I’m about 3/4 finished on the body. The pattern that I’m ‘kinda’ using has the sleeves worked separately, but I think I will work them from the shoulders down. That will eliminate the seams.
Still reading? Well, I’m surprised. I know this has been a pretty boring post so I’ll add some random pictures for you.

Sandy, you are amazing! You rattle off all these knitting and sewing projects like they are nothing out of the ordinary. You are an expert seamstress and knitter. Oh, how I envy you your talent 🙂
