I can see the bugs! They're lovely.
Preemie hat pattern, please???? Thank you ;)
I love that preemie hat! Sheila, let Wendy write that up for you! So cute!
Wendy, your voodoo doll worked. hehe! Grats to the Bruins team. What a fantastic goalie they had.
Oh I'm doing the Iris Shawl KAL too. Thanks to Melissa for posting about it on Plurk.
That pillowcase is cute and what a fantastic idea to make their hospital bed seem more like home. My husband is a transplant patient. It breaks my heart that any child has to go through that but I'm thankful we live in a time with such advances.
Hugs ladies!
Bec and Suezeeknits, I will get working on the preemie hat. It is so simple and cute.
I know the NHL Series was a fantastic one, I am glad that Wendy's voodoo doll worked though.
Suezee, it really is an amazing world that we have such medical advances. Honestly, my little guy would not be here with out them. Thanks for watch.
Sheila
Yay! Elena sees the bugs. I'm not the only one.
On Plurk, you can set something to send the same messages to Twitter. DramaticKnits and other podcasters use it.
