Intro/Announcements:
- I’ve been reading a lot! I use Overdrive to check out e-books from the library and Goodreads to find new books to read.

Sewing
FO:
- Burda Style 01/2010/105 – Fleece Jacket. I added about 3″ in length and used a 26″ zipper.
WIPs:
- I’m making a formal gown for a neighbor – McCall’s 6466. Right now I’m working out the muslin to be sure it fits well.
- Christmas pajamas for Ben, just cut out – McCall’s 2919 – Everyone will get PJ’s but I started with his first, but I did get fabric for all of us.

I still want you to write an article on how you can raise a family and do everything else you do on the side without going crazy… In other words: I’m very proud of you!
