Silver Sugar Bowl Pincushion

Dear Friends I fell in love with Dawn's little pincushions in baby shoes and then I was out taking in some eye candy in Fairfield, Ohio and talking to my Chrissy daughter on the cell. When this little silver sugar bowl jumped in my cart and said it wanted to be a pincushion. Chrissy said "That sounds a little odd, but go for it!" She inherited my sense of creative possibilities, so even though she couldn't see it in her head, she has a trusting heart and gives good feed back.
Except for the time Becky and I planned an activity to welcome the Young Women into Relief Society. We thought we would approach it 'welcoming the Young Women to Old Women. We had walker races and a bed pan toss and other inappropriate things to make fun of ourselves. The Young Women loved it, decided we weren't so boring after all and threw a 'Teddy Bear Tea Party for us'. Chrissy and Becky's daughter stood on the deck observing "Our mothers are so weird!" That may be... but I'm willing to do whatever it takes!
From One Kindred Spirit to Another, Have a Lovely Day,
Have a Lovely Day~
