Piper looked adorable in her tutu such a shame she couldn't do her performance but I expect she will be able to do it in the near future. Your baby blanket looks very soft and cosy. I am at present making another baby blanket for another great nephew who will arrive in February. This will be the 9th blanket I have crocheted for family babes. I have to admit I am getting a bit tired of blankets! The little hats are so cute...gorgeous!! keep well Amanda xCrafty in the Medhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15365932964481050936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8162150278449660664.post-66623585251332332632020-12-22T15:34:34.435-06:002020-12-22T15:34:34.435-06:00That's neat that you saw the planet and stars....That's neat that you saw the planet and stars.. it's very hard to get a good photo of them even with a $10,000 camera! Your advent stockings sure have been fun for you. The blanket turned out spectacular and the little hats are so sweet. Very nice of you to donate them.

I noted your pretty little bird has lovely purple plumage! Your stitching continues to inspire me. I so admire how beautifully you use your giftedness. 💜🤗🙏Gracie Saylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09499163425742659172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8162150278449660664.post-91035425290177530362020-12-22T13:45:51.571-06:002020-12-22T13:45:51.571-06:00It was SO cloudy here.

I think it is so neat that it hadn't been seen in 800 years, and also to find out it was the anniversary of the date the pilgrims first landed here. I hated that I missed it so thank you for sharing the photo. The baby blanket is so pretty, too!Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01891257905649460436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8162150278449660664.post-11123645102471619602020-12-22T12:27:38.421-06:002020-12-22T12:27:38.421-06:00You got it!

I wish I had asked you about making a baby blanket before I gave up on the new Grand's. The pattern I tried was awful so I quilted one instead but a knitted one is more useful for a Michigan baby.

A friend out to the desert for an astronomical gazing party with a mega telescope and was able to see the event. That little bird does look like it is pecking at some shiny birdseed. So wonderful that you are able to make and donate to the hospital. I keep making and have nowhere for everything to go. :/ Need to do some grocery shopping but can't motivate myself to go. In the make do with what I have frame of mind at the moment. Or maybe it's just laziness. :) Take care. Tammy@T's Daily Treasureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01474928708908027789noreply@blogger.com
