Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Okay, for once I'm going to be the one to entice someone else to buy a book..

Today we just received Stray Sock Sewing by Daniel and we've been making little animals for several hours now. Perfect for that big basket of stray socks in my closet! I hope the girls and I can have a few ready for our church Harvest Day next weekend for the bazaar.

(I tried to put an Amazon link but my book is different than any of those shown there-- weird!)

My daughter picked this book up and was looking at it in borders the other day! She is just beginning to sew, and is intrigued by the book. I was thinking of getting it so that she can make some gifts.
Thanks for the recommendation!

Well, I was just trying to sort a million stray socks (how do they multiply like that?) so maybe I should look into it.

Here's another book, Happy Gloves, that makes really cute animals and dolls out of gloves (and at this time of year you can get them really inexpensively if you don't have odd ones layig taround the house as we always do!)
