Oh Wow PrincessTrish...congratulations yourself...you should be proud too! How to actually "talk" to the other writer like this...

 

Thanks for popping in!

[eurolyons]

Hello earthwhisperer...I see you're from the Central Valley of California...I lived in Sacramento most of my life...

[peapod]

I have this magazine and I saw your picture and thought it was gorgeous! Congratulations! Be very proud! I would be! You look great and so does your jacket. Wow!

[eurolyons]

Thank you peapod...I'm still on a bit of high from it all...

[Sakkasie]

I got my copy of Crochet tonight and you look great! Your letter was also very well written. Congratulations !!!

 

[Shelleden]

Congratulations!!! I subscribe to that mag - it's one of my favorites! I haven't gotten that issue yet, but I'll be sure to check out your letter when my copy arrives! Your jacket is gorgeous, and you're a beautiful model! I'm glad your hubby is proud of you - that feels good, doesn't it?!?!

[eurolyons]

Thank you Shelleden and Sakkasie...

 

My husband almost dropped the camera while taking the pictures of me with that jacket...(there's a story, but I don't wanna shock anyone...I'll leave it up to your imagination...)

 

It feels really good that my husband is insanely supportive of my efforts...he wears everything I ever make for him...he loves every stuffed animal I make for him...he never, ever tells me, "Oh please don't, I won't wear it..." He knows that I put out the effort for him because I love him...and this is one way for me to express it...he was so proud that the letter got published...

 

He's wonderful and I'm lucky...

[Kiki]

I just got the magazine! What a beautiful jacket!! You have the prettiest blond hair!

[eurolyons]

Thanks Kiki...you can't see it, but I have a red streak in there too...(from a bottle...)

 

I love, love, love that jacket...I got to wear it over the weekend...

 

This isn't the best picture...the hat is Stitch Diva's free Gatsby Hat pattern...without flower...we were at the Steiff Museum which is next to the factory that makes the Button in the Eat, expensive stuffed animals, most popular of course is the teddy bear...

 

 

In my hands are my very first pair of mittens I ever made...did them out of chenille yarn...pattern is from one of my magazines, but I can't remember which one...

 

There was snow on the ground outside, but believe it or not, that jacket kept me relatively warm...

I could use one here at snowy Fort Drum, NY!! And nothing wrong with bottle red,... I should know!

[eurolyons]

Oh I see you're military Kiki...my husband is retired Lt.Col. for the Army, but is now a contractor over here in Germany...hubby was born at West Point.

[Sherri1]

That's wonderful! Congrats!!!! I am going to have to find that magazine. The sweater looks like it would be great for the cold winter of Iowa.

[eurolyons]

Thanks Sherri...I wouldn't wear it for long walks in the woods on a snowing Iowa day, but for getting in and out of the car and short distances, it was great...

14 years of active duty and now in a new role as Army wife! My hubby is about to deploy, but Fort Drum is home for me, my family is less than an hour away!

[eurolyons]

My husband and I have been here in Germany over 6 years...married for over 4...so being a "semi" military wife is really, really, really new for me and something I honestly thought I would never be...the culture shock dealing with the military community has been worse than dealing with the culture shock of living in a foriegn country...

 

It's different...but we are grateful to have each other and the opportunity to be here...but we want to go back to Vashon eventually...
