things for young ladies to do on a cold winter day

this is a close up picture of my knitting.
In Grandmas Attic.
I enjoyed reading Beverly Cleary to. 
I also enjoyed this series of books, mama read these aloud to us when we where little, I loved them a lot, these books are full of adventure that girls of all ages will love.
this is a series of books every girl or boy should read.

this is what I have been working on for quite a long time, it's a scarf for one of my best friends (Melinda). 
This is my knitting bag, it is supposed to be a purse but I don't like soft purses.    

My great aunt made this monkey doll for me, and I made the apron.
I got this in a kit, it came with paint, it was hard to put together, and fun to  paint.

Harvest Party Costume (yes...ikikik...im super late)

Image
So lately I have been finding myself obsessed with anything WWII and 1940s...so naturally I was overly excited about dressing up for our annual Harvest Party (we don't do Halloween). After many ideas that came and went, I finally settled on "WWII agent", and ideas and grand plans started whirling around my head immediately, Goodwill here I come.      I started by combing every Goodwill store for suits that would match this particular time period. I came up with a beautifully colored pant suit, which fit me well enough.   Of course I should also mention that I don't wear pants...ugh...first road block.  The transforming of the slacks into a pencil skirt was perfect, and after many adjustings and slips to cover up unseemly lines and lumps, we did it!! The shoes...ah...the shoes...this is a very long story, but to shorten it I will just say that I had been looking for them for months, I wanted a pair that were nice, American made, non 3 inch...
