    zaika: LOVE that yarn bag. I have been wanting one like that for years. But...I'm in search of the "perfect" one for me. I've seen several in my searches but I'm just waiting until one speaks to me. Yours is very nice. I like the fabric.

    Show us your vintage patterns!

    Not sure where to put this so I'm putting this in here. I was just looking at the Martha Stewart website and they have a free pattern for a cute beret. Seems easy enough. Would be really cute to make one in a matching fabric if you make a suit or a dress. http://tinyurl.com/3l7qrx

    Gardens vegetable, flower or other?

    thanks :) I love my garden. When we lived in our apt, we used big pots and had a cool container garden. the tomatos did "OK". they got root bound towards the end of summer and didn't produce as much fruit as a garden planted one, but, we got tomatos from it all summer anyway. so you don't...

    Help me date my table and chairs

    the top is all wood. the bottom of the table has been repainted (the top has not been repainted, it's original). the chairs have also been repainted (but not the black seat). one of these days, i may strip it and repaint it doing a better job.

    Women serving during WWII

    I have that book. It's a great starter for the beginner researcher. If you're a seasoned researcher, it's good to have in your stash of books but you will probably know everything that is in that book. However, the bibliography in that book is great. I've highlighted many sources. "Since you...
