Timeless Twine: Kawaii Mittens


busy day on my blog...post 1 of 2...click HERE for a special Skipping Stones Design blog hop!


Hello and Happy Monday!

I'm over on the Timeless Twine blog today!


Here's a peek at my project:


I used Timeless Twine's



I contacted the artist of those CUTE mittens to find out if I could post my project using her PDF and she said yes!  If you pop over to the Timeless Twine blog, I have the PDF linked :)

A little bit about the book I used...My father was the Editor of the book and gave it to me back in 1997, just before my boy was born.  I chat a ton about my Momma here but not so much my Dad.  

He passed away in 1999 of lung cancer as a non-smoker.  It's my personal opinion that it was due to second hand smoke he endured while living in Japan.   

Sadly, I didn't have much of a relationship with my Father....we moved when I was in 2nd grade.  I remember he would take us to places like  THIS.....and I'd be horribly bored but as an adult, I love to go to museums.  I attribute graduating from the University of Washington in 2006 to my Dad.  He never had a 'poker face' and those that know me, know that I don't either.

This post is dedicated to my Dad.  I'm certain that he'd be proud that I'm pursuing my passion.
