It's time for a little This and That.
One of the churches in the neighborhood has a Sticks and Hook group.
This knit and crochet group would like to make 400 scarves to distribute
to the homeless during the holidays.
I thought that was something I could help with and hit my stash.
There are no rules for the scarf -- just that it be 6 ft in length.
They didn't care about pattern or what kind of yarn.
Here are my first three ... one skein of Homespun in each scarf.
Each is a little different in pattern -- to keep me from getting bored!
I think this one is my favorite.
A girl can't live by scarves alone, so I took a little break and am
making 14 of these.
Fourteen before I can go on with the pattern.
Hmmmmm ... what is it going to be?!
(A big thank you to Mr. Brown for being the model. He is my grandson's
lovey when he visits.)

I am sure at least one of these is in my future!
Who knew there were so many Amineko fans on Flickr?!!!

I wanted to share with you my very FIRST color pencil sketch.

A little story.
Mr. Dragon always bought a teddy bear for me --
on my birthday, our anniversary (we had two).
On February 1st this year, he looked at me and said he was
sorry he didin't have a bear for me on our 30th anniversary.
To be sure, when it was all over, to get a bear.
I promised him I would ... a very special bear.
I'd like you to meet Holland.
He arrived yesterday.
He is the perfect -- very special bear.
Holland came from Ginger.
She is a wonderful bear artist and has a delightful blog.
Wishing YOU well and a wonderful weekend.
To my friends on the East Coast ... hunker down and please be careful.
Hurricanes are no fun.
I know.
