Happy Pink Saturday! I just finished this faux mohair/rayon scarf, using the very last bit of this gorgeous yarn~ a blend of faux mohair and a strand of a silky rayon mult-colors thread woven through it.
A few years ago I bought this yarn from a extraordinary yarn dealer on Ebay for a custom order I had received. This sweet dear lady wanted a very, very soft drawstring gown made for her reborn doll.
So I went on a mission to find a unique, soft and pretty yarn to make this gown in. I found a pattern that I altered for the doll's measurements and made it into a drawstring gown, as requested.
As I was making this gown, memories of my own precious babies would come to mind. Remember the Carters cotton gowns our babies wore as infants? As they grew, we would take the
drawstring out? Needless to say, being the sentimental sap that I am, I shed a few tears while
remembering those precious sweet baby moments of my two boys who are now 23 and 21.
hall table. I purchased these candles at Pier One a couple of years ago and they smell so good...not
your typical fall scent, but an island spice. I loved the colors and it went with the colors in the painting above the table. I love the big, chunky potpourri too...So there you go!
Now I just need to freshen up my Fall wreath for the front door while trying to keep my teeny petite
Bella away from it. Why is it that cats just KNOW everything is about them??lol, just so funny!
Please join Beverly @ How Sweet the Sound and all of the other fun ladies for Pink Saturday!
