One More Thing...

I don't know how many of you do "Pinterest" but I get on there almost every day.  This morning when I got on there, I ended up at this "Whatever Craft" blog (I added a link at the top of my favorite blogs list on the left side of this page - check it out - scroll down really far so you can see the cute aprons they make).  I finally figured out it's in Wichita, KS - a short 2-1/2 hr drive from here.  So I signed up to be on their waiting list to do one of the craft weekends.  It costs $475, they pick people from all around the country so you get to meet lots of other women, eat great food, go antiquing, and do fun crafts all weekend in a cutesy house in Wichita, KS.  I think I would LOVE to have a craft house to rent out to people/groups to do crafts like that.  I know there's a house here in Norman that is a quilter's cottage where groups of women go on weekend quilt retreats.  I think the house sleeps about 10-12 women dormitory style and they do similar activities.  One of Jann's clients sold her mother's house (when the mother died) in Bonham, TX to someone who turned it into a craft/quilter's cottage to rent out down there.  What a business!

My prayer shawl group (about 12 of us) went back to Guthrie a couple of weekends ago and I had a great time taking a knitting class, antiquing, and had lunch with 4 other fun ladies (we kind of broke up in small groups so people could eat at different places). We ate at this little burger/bbq place.  Reminded me of the Service Station Restaurant (where I met Joe).




I also finished another prayer shawl.
