Traverse City and Area

Today I have to go register the dog at the County Treasurer's. Hopefully my GPS will find the place. Then I'm off to search for curtain rods and curtains for my new house.

Tomorrow the fridge and microwave arrive. My son says I should be able to move once they're there since I never cook with a stove anyway NOT moving yet Mike, I want my bed and some furniture to sit on first.

Yesterday we went to Cedar, MI which is really right up the road about 20 miles. Inish Knits Yarn - Needles - Spinning Wheels - Patterns and Books - Open Knitting and Spinning Nights - 9031 S. Kasson - Cedar, Michigan 49621

I really was interested in the quilt shop too because my friend Sammie just showed me a crazy quilt that is done in the hoop on the embroidery machine. Doggone her, I don't need another hobby I'm thinking I could make a wall hanging instead
of a full quilt but who knows what this will lead to. (not going there).
Who can resist that hummingbird?

Meanwhile, I'm dreaming of the day my sewing machine comes and I can make my first project, a herb clock for the kitchen.

Welcome to Northern Michigan! There are several nice yarn shops in the area. Two that I can personnally reccomend are also quite close to you in Buelah just south of T.C. on hwy 31. The Knitting Bug is at 354 N. Michigan Ave and the Yarn Market is @ 254 S. Benzie Blvd. Both are nicely stocked and the Yarn market also has beading supplies in the back half of the shop. There is also a small machine knitters group in Petoskey. We would love to have you join us if you are interested. You can email me for more information. drparkey@yahoo.com
