A website that's new to me.

A new feature for Mondays - something to do in the week ahead.

Babies and toddlers are fun to make clothes for because everything is done in minisizes. I crocheted a hat and skirt set for the daughter of a friend a couple of years ago. After fitting the child, who was 1 at the time, and noting what needed to be adjusted, I got busy with other things and put the outfit away.

I may have over thought this week's pattern. I wanted to make a raglan-shaped baby's cardigan in garter stitch, knit from the center-left-front to the center-right-front. Sounds easy, right.

This week we have a baby blanket Joyce made a couple years ago, a braided fabric cord made by Rhea and a sneak at Sunday's Math4Knitters podcast.

The bracelet giveaway is over. Congratulations to Brianne Suelzer, the winner. Thanks to all who entered. We hope to do more giveaways in the future.Also, thanks to colleague Emma Downs for her help using www.random.org to generate our winner.

Shipshewana offers plenty of opportunities for quilters and sewers.

Ruth Ann Shively sent us a message about quilling after reading the Feb. 14 column on the subject.

I'm not crazy about sewing on buttons, either. Frankly, there are times that an otherwise complete garment languishes for months in my linen closet, because it has no buttons. When I do finally sew them, I do have a little trick that makes the final result more pleasant.

I HATE darning in ends. There, I said it. I still have to do it, though.

You can win this bracelet to complete your St. Patrick's day outfit, or give to someone.

This is a peek into my design/idea process.

This show is about picking up stitches and making button bands. Also, an interview with Lana Holden.

St. Patrick’s Day is March 17, and it got me thinking. I don’t really have a lot of green to wear in honor of the holiday, but I can buy green beads.

We're presenting you with some of our work and a tease to Sunday's Math4Knitters podcast

Julie Anderson of Bead Source in Covington Plaza has sent out her email newsletter letting customers know that she will be closed all day Monday, March 8. It's not a holiday. Instead, Julie will be hosting a couple as part of the Make My Date show that airs on the networks of Indiana's Newscenter.
