Pink

Pink is my new favorite color! The new baby is going to be a girl! I so wanted to have a girl when my children were born. But I had two boys. Now I can make girl stuff. I have a pleater so I can make beautiful smocked dresses. I have a half-made Raggedy Ann doll that I can finish. I make the cutest little stuffed dog. It is a Joan Russell pattern from a Woman's Day magazine that dates to the early 60's. I already have a Cross Stitch and Country Crafts Christmas Stocking stitched but I want to see if there is an even sweeter one that I can stitch.

I worked on the English Tapestry Sewing Box yesterday. I am pretty close to getting page 2 done. So that is my goal for today, finish page 2. I am starting to feel some momentum on this project. I am anxious to see what the next part will look like. Page two has gone fast.

The word on the counter top is, as of six days ago, it is not done.

Rain is coming across the lake. I can hear thunder already. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that we don't lose electricity again.

I have a hankering for brownies.
