Thank you all for your responses to my Christmas Project of decorating
place mats with Christmas theme pictures and words. They are all
trimmed and tidied up and on to napkins to match the main color of
each Mat. I have a Nelco Serger in the other side of my sewing room
that has been carefully covered for more than a year or so but those
instruction books are wonderful reminders of the Art. So now I have
napkins cut out for 36 (I made a few more mats) white, red and green
napkin square about 17 inches and am finishing off the edges. I have
doubled the material on those I couldn't find Linen for. I've had a
few set backs, but I'll get them done by the end of the month.
Beware of the contaminates at some beauty salons.... had to use Nitro
to recover from the exposure last Thursday. I hope with the help of
God to get back to cardiac rehab tomorrow. But HOW am I to get my
hair fixed this week???? When I was young and with many children I
used to wash my hair in the shower, give my head a few shakes and call
it my busy Mother hair do. Can I get by with that at age 87 1/2 ?

I sure enjoyed looking at all the lovely quilts on your website. Such an
inspiration!
I also have problems with the chemicals they use at beauty salons, but I
only get headaches from them. My solution is to grow my hair out for charity
(Locks of Love). Since it takes me two years to grow my hair long enough, I
don't have to get it cut very often! Unfortunately, when it gets longer than
about shoulder length it also drives me nuts to take care of.

My goodness, Rhoda. I'm betting that at 87½ you can get away with just
about anything. If you want a busy mother style, go for it. Probably you
could call around and find a hair stylist that would come to your home and
do a cut that would look wonderful and be easy care.
While you're serging Christmas napkins, do make a few extra. They're
great for lining cookie tins for an extra special gift. Polly

With the price of linen these days, I'd better find a better use for
the napkins than liners. But thanks anyway.
It's so nice to be able to talk with you ladies who know what we
sewers strive for.
