Sept and Oct Craft Projects

I finished some knitted dishcloths with a basketweave design in denim and earth ombre color cotton.  The knitted towel below is chocolate ombre cotton.
I plan to knit at least 10 or more dishcloths for the next 1852 Diggins in June.
These Daffodils were made from yarn and plastic canvas.  They are one of my favorite flowers and fit perfectly in the container that my son Jeremy gave to me for a Mother's Day gift.

My quilted 1840's Blue Bonnet with dark blue ribbons. It is used at 1852 Diggins in Columbia State Historic Park each year. It keeps me cool from the sun's heat.

Knitted 1850's Bonnet & Sontag


This Grey & Navy knitted bonnet took only a month from Nov 22 to Dec 22. It is embellished with navy blue ribbons.  It is nice and warm for winter events.




The Brown Alpaca knitted shawl Sontag took several months from July to Sept.  It is triangular shaped and wraps around my waist with a front tie.
