Mary Kastner

Hi there, Mary Kastner, you won my snowman UFO!  Now that I have found the pattern (thanks Karen and Rebecca), my plan is to get the borders on it and send it to you as a complete top.  Send me your address and give me a week or so and it will be on its way to its new home.

Yesterday the family made its annual excursion to the Dicken's Faire in San Francisco.  In the photo above you see Jacob Marley confronting Ebeneezer Scrooge.  See the fear in Mr. Scrooge's eyes?  He is beginning to doubt some of the choices he has made in his life.

This pretty lass is a live mannequin in the window of Dark Gardens, a Victorian lingerie shop.  Pretty underthings are for everyone, no matter what your size.

Or gender.

It's San Francisco, people.

Every now and then, there would be a parade through the "streets" with Father Christmas leading the way.  Here are some of the people I was able to snap as they passed by.

One of the Three Blind Mice.

The Queen of Hearts.

Unfortunately, I wasn't quick enough to get a picture of the chimney sweep who offered to "clean my stacks".

Happy Holidays Friends!  I will be back tomorrow with another UFO giveaway!

  1. Glad you were able to find a new home for your UFO. I have enough of my own so I didn’t post on your giveaway, 😉
    but I’ve gotten 2 of my own “finishes” so far. Whoohoo. Both are Christmas/winter piecs.

  2. I forgot about this! I always have enjoyed this and you’re cracking me up with your stacks being cleaned. Happy Holidays and thanks for adding to the “Spirit of Christmas.”
