First Crocheted Felted Purse made


I crocheted this blue & green felted purse this week. It was from a kit from Aunties Attic Craft Club. The first time I did something like this and I was very pleased with the results.

Visit to Fairmont, West Virginia



We drove up to Fairmont, WV last Wed. for a quick visit with Frank's brothers Milton and James, and Milton's wife Karen. We had a wonderful visit but the time was too short as we left for home on Sat. morning. It is over 500 miles one way. We went to the grave site of their father Frank Sr. and visited places where they use to live and went to school. We plan to go back for a longer visit in the Spring when the snow is all gone. At least they are now closer than when we lived in Iowa. One of the perks of living in South Carolina.
