Another Favorite

 

Another Winter Lights favorite.

How long does it take to make ten little drawstring bags for a church Christmas party?  Longer than I thought it might.

And now that they're finished, I can think of a way to improve the pattern.  Maybe next time.  I am happy with the serged edges, those little bags are sturdy.

One of my favorite memories surfaced today.  Ten years ago - ten years! - I was dropping off the grands at their schools.  We dropped first-grade Nora off first.  Four-year-old Aaron watched her go up the sidewalk and into the door, and he said, "She looks so little."  And then he declared, "Read and write, read and write, that's all they do at that school.  I won't be going to that school."
