Relief Society went well. Thanks to all the Ladies who helped with the food. Everything was wonderful. Salad, rolls, and a yummy pumpkin dessert. I need to get the recipe for the salad. The rolls were a huge hit, warm and fresh!
The scarves we make couldn't be simpler to make! Just take a yard of 2 fabrics and cut them in half lengthwise. Then sew the two short ends together. {if you are using shot cotton there is no "right side"} sew a 3/4" seam allowance and then sew the seam allowances down flat. We used two different colors of "Kaffe Fassett's Shot cotton. -if you are wondering what shot cottons is ....Shot cotton is special because the warp and weft yarns are 2 different colors woven together to create a special depth, a "shot" of color. When the edge of this fabric ravels, you can see a bright contrast to the body of the fabric. {finished scarf 22"x72"}
I threw mine in the washer and dryer and after a light pressing-
On the orange scarf it's hard to tell in this picture but, the contrast color is pink. Thanks to everyone who helped. Bree and Denver thanks for taking everything down- huge help! =)
Another one done....now on to the next.
Hard day...- yesterday they found our dear friend Ben who had been missing for nearly four years-

We were notified that they found a car matching Ben's, so we hurried to the place where they were recovering it-read the story here- http://westsideconnect.com/content/view/2829/162/
It was a hard day-
Dan's words- Teresa, Denver, Bree and myself stayed there the entire time to make sure they took care of him and also, I wanted to make sure that there was someone there that loved him"
Just a hard day.
