I am trying to find a Swedish stitch chart so I can pick out some stitches to put on a wool felted hat. On the Today show, which I watch every morning, they showed one of the ladies, who at the time was doing part of the show from a tall mountain, wearing this hat and I fell in love with the theme and pattern. Her hat was like a bombers hat and was trimmed in some large designs around the bottom and had some designs stitched on the crown.
I was given a mustard colored wool bag to use as a pattern. I will not be using it so got the idea of using this bag to make my hat from. It fit perfect when I put it over my head so now I need to cut it to shape and find the stitches to add to it.
Do you works? I am retired now but drove the large charter coaches for Millers Transportation there in L-ville. I also worked at Caesars in the food and Bev. office before marrying and retiring.
We (husband) and I are starting up our own web business to see how that goes. Retirement is not all that great when one had no extra money.
As you can see in my picture, I am a part-time entertainer also. I play/sing at parties, receptions, piano bar, or just anywhere I can find a piano. I am quite good too and got of bookings when I lived in Seymour, where I moved from as everyone knew me and my style. Now that I live here, I am finding it hard to find places to play at. I don't charge friends/family and when I get jobs I don't charge much there either.
Have a nice day!. . .Janet

I am Janet and live across the river in Floyds Knobs In. so feel free to contact me any time to chat or whatever. I moved here from Seymour In 5 years ago when I remarried and still don't know very many people around here.
I hope you enjoy your membership and take care. . . Janet
Hello Karen. When I opened my computer, there you were, thanks you for asking and isn't this all fun. Heard from Rissa late yesterday I will be so great to have us all in one place again. Have not pulled a stitch all week. My computer is limping and I have been tryin to fix it. So far...I certanly am not a geek, but I can send and receive, most of the time. This is so great, I need a fix from my Louisville friend occasionaly. I loved living there...lo, those many years ago.
Consider yourself hugged. Barb
Hi Karen,
It sure is fun to see each other over cyberspace! I guess I should put a better photo of myself here...this one was taken about 12 years ago!!
Finding time to do it all is not that hard when an idea takes off - I have been thinking of doing this for 6 months or more - but needed a little prompt and now I am glad I did start it as it looks like something people want
