Our Generation Harriet

I can't believe its already March!!!

[Tampa Doll]

I love all the outfits Chris.

Well, I have finally gotten back to where I was when I ripped out the afghan down to just the background color.

Here are 3 pictures of it.  One distance, one for the right and one for the left of the afghan.

I can now look forward to finishing it up.  You can see all my bobbins.

It's looking good, Mary Jo. The bobbins look like a bed full of little mice with really long tails. LOL

[Bailey4]

Looks great Mary Jo.  Your collection of bobbins looks like mine.  I just dug mine out for a baby blanket and I was amazed at how many different kinds I've collected over time.  I can't wait to see the dogs all finished up.

This is the last of the baby doll wipes boxes for the donation.  On to Baby bibs.

15" Rag Doll Bathing Suit

The Rag Doll has shoes that are a part of the doll so the bathing suit is an odd choice but the snow is melted and it is the first day I've been outside without a coat in ages so my plan is working.

Chris you are doing a great job with doll clothes and accessories.  We had just a skiff of snow on ground Mon.  They have put us under a winter storm advisory for Thurs night and are all over the place on how much snow to expect.  Darn why couldnt the precipitation have come last week when it was 80°.

Turned in two prayer shawls this morning.

[Bailey4]

Love the colors!!!

[Bailey4]

This is one I adapted from a smaller doll but its been there from the beginning of the donation.

On to the bibs!!!

I am slowly working my way through the diaper bag items.

Lots to Love 14" Doll Baby Bib

Found a doll carrier that I think will work for the smaller 14" Baby on sale so that means I only need to make one more doll carrier between now and November!!

[bgs]

Chris you are amazing!  It takes me forever to decide what to make and which yarn to use.  Fingers crossed that the doll carrier works out.

16" Baby Doll Bathing Suit

Hoped to find more Barbie summer furniture at the Dollar Store after reading about a Barbie bloggers find.  Only doll house furniture at ours.  I did find two pans with food that will work for the 18" dolls though so those will head off with the donations.  Still have some Dollar Tree stores to check to see if I can find the Barbie stuff.

I spent a day with a friend who lives north of Phoenix where the weather is cooler and finished this little project! 

[bgs]

Denise its so cute.  And darn I keep forgetting to look for the stuffies the few times I make it out.  

[Tampa Doll]

Denise I love the stuffy.  That is a two for one.

Well, gang after ripping out twice and finally getting it right.  Here is the Afghan I have been working on.

Oh my gosh Tampa Doll, that is amazing! A charted C2C is seriously not even on my “some day” list!

[Tampa Doll]

Thanks Denise, but I would never try c2c with this graph.  I would not know how to begin.  It is all sc.

Beautiful day today.  Friend coming over to do the yard stuff and such that he does for us along with the pool.

[babypoohsmom]

Tampa, I see that now in the previous pictures! Well done and I hope the person who receives it is very grateful! 
By the way, I have a little star by my name now. I see some of you have a crown. What is that about?

I saw that when I went on my profile and did not know what it meant But just noticed the crown.

You have a crown also.  We checked all the boxes.

[babypoohsmom]

So is it Lady Tampa Doll, Dutchess Tampa Doll? I love the crown. Fun!

Just as an FYI…my surgery went as planned on Tuesday morning, and I spent the night in hospital. Didn’t get any control on the pain until 2am on Wednesday. To my surprise, the “Jr” doctor asked me if I wanted to go home after he saw me walk and found out that I had requested and ate normal food (not liquids) for breakfast and lunch yesterday. I said yes please! So now I am just trying to figure out a good meds schedule to keep the pain at bay. I woke up with IV’s in each hand so it was hard to move around in bed. My right hand is bruised  from the IV but I think I can crochet with it! For now I think I will watch some tutorials.

[Tampa Doll]

So glad the surgery went well.  I love the Jr. doctor.  Seems like every time I go to see the dr. he gets younger.

Take it easy and rest.

Forgot to add the newest dolls for the collection going to Chris for her charity.

Denise glad your surgery is over and that you are home recuperating.

Mary Jo cute dolls and clothes.

Well after I said my right arm was going to be ok, it decided to get deeply infected. You could see the raised red infected nerve creeping up my arm from midway up my forearm on Friday to my bicep on Saturday. They said if it went to my shoulder, I had to go to the ER. Luckily the antibiotic started working. 
Anyway, I found this hat I make before surgery that didn’t really come out the way I wanted it to. My newest kitty, Keller, decided that my foam head was somehow a threat to our household and murdered it. So I’ll need to get a new one when I am allowed to drive again.
