Sock Puppet.........

Jimmity crickets........if we don't have a good frost in the morning I will be shocked.
Gotta be snowing somewhere down south........
more retreat news.........
Fairy girl had no idea she was coming to stay for the night.............I had snuck some clothes for her into my bag and when they called in I asked her if she wanted to stay and she said she didn't have any clothes............I showed her my stash of clothes and she was SOOOOOO excited..........she had a ball with us..........she also got to do some sewing too.............
Thank goodness we found out this week's homework before last weekend.
Fairy Girl arrived with a plain blue sock and look at her beautiful puppet
she made while at the retreat.
With a little help from the other Miss's stitching and scraps she made "sparkles" complete with strapless dress,
leopard print belt, sleeping bag and pillow.
Catch you later..............
