I Love a Finished Project
Nothing is more satisfying or appreciated than a project that was oh so close to be pitched long before there was a thought of a finished project that would look anything like mittens as Christmas tree decorations. The counted cross stitch was a bit much to chew off. Amazingly, this kept me busy off and on for several weeks without having to purchase anything. Mother in law, Esther Schafer, crocheted with gold cording and I had just enough left in a stash of hers to make the hangers for the mittens. Floss and lace came out of a stash that Kevin and Kersten have shared with me. The linen was in a fabric stash of days long ago. Now the mittens can rest until I find homes for them in the Christmas of 2015.
