It was a lazy Sunday afternoon. The perfect day for some rosary making. We have been making rosaries for the missions for years, and yesterday, Dad got out the "rosary box" and got to work. When we have about 100 rosaries made, we pick somewhere in the world to send them. In the past we have sent some to Tanzania, Kenya, India, Ireland, and Mexico. We find addresses of those in need of rosaries at
Our Ladies Rosary Makers. You can also order parts at this site.
Amy hard at work.
While rosaries were being made in the living room, Laura and I finished two more tied baby blankets for our local Catholic Charities.
We were told that these blankets, and anything for newborn babies are greatly needed. We are going to make it a family outing when we deliver these to Catholic Charities tomorrow.
I got some quick sewing done today. This warm and fuzzy fleece sewed up in about an hour--I had cut it out a few days ago.
It is my favorite fleece top for my littlest kids. It is McCall's Pattern #M4642. I am afraid that it is out of print, but I see that it is still available some places on the web. 
I especially like the zipper in the front, it is very easy to put in. Last year I made a pair of fleece pants from this same pattern, but I didn't like the results. The waistband was much too bulky because of the folded fleece. I prefer cordoroy for little pants, and will use some dark pink baby cordoroy to make pants to match this top.
Kimmy just loves zippers too!
