Sweet

Carrie and Megan came for a visit this afternoon.  It was cool enough that Dennis suggested we start the furnace a bit before they arrived.  Dang!  It did feel good.

Megan is continuing to stay interested in sewing, so much so that Carrie needed to take her sewing machine, which was my 1965 Kenmore, to the repair shop.  It seems that fake fur can lodge where you least expect it.  The machine is ready to be picked up for Megan to sew again. 

When they left today they had a full backseat.  The dress form that I had purchased when I thought I would try to make Megan’s next competition dress went home with Megan.  I knew that I could do better for my Eden Prairie family than the skate dress.  The fabrics are quite stretchy and my fingers are not quite as nimble as Carrie’s and Megan’s.  Carrie and Megan are excited to practice working on fabrics that the skate costumes are sewn of.  My sewing tables are proof of my Eden Prairie project as I have a flurry of the terry towels that I am working on for the 2020 skating club’s banquet.  

The skies are gray and it remains cool.  The forecast of 80 degrees tomorrow is quite an extreme.

Carrie and Megan left . . . giving Dennis early birthday hugs.  Sweet! Dennis will be 83 on October 2nd and he is still gathering steam.  Bless my ole cowboy’s heart.
