She made the blocks for the one below at home and I arranged them on the design wall while she sewed the tumblers. This was from a kit purchased at a quilt show.
SG worked on this purse for her Irish sister.
Everyone accomplished so much yesterday. It must have been because the day started out at -17 degrees and we all had to keep moving to stay warm.
A lot of my readers are knitters and I used to be one too. Back in the 1950s and '60s the most popular needlework magazine was McCall's Needlework and Crafts. My mother had a subscription to it because she liked to do crafts. I got my own subscription after I was married and got a lot of my patterns and advice for quilting and knitting in them. A few other crafty magazines started up in the early '60s and the little sweater above was in one of them. It may have been in a Workbasket magazine. I knitted it for my son in 1961 or 1962. 4 ply knitting worsted was the most popular yarn of that time period. This is the only sweater I kept. I passed the rest on to other little ones as my kids out grew them.
