I will buy some too if I see them at the family dollar!

If you are talking about the little jars, I found them at the local grocery store yesterday. They came in a package of 8 for under 5.00.

Didn't see anything but the big ones at Family Dollar so I'll try Foodlion, thanks for the tip Vert!!!​

That's a cut doll. Saturday I bought material to start a quilt for my son to replace one he had given to him as a teen ager and it's wore out. He says he misses his security blanket.

It is a basic log cabin pattern using a red center and the other colors are light creams to dark browns. I know he won't get it this Christmas but I might make his birthday. Hope everyone is having a good holiday. It's quiet here for us old folks. Everyone took off for the mountains or the coast.

That's sweet Austin!! In the cedar chest I have a "woobie" that was my daughter's and it is thread bare from years of loving and a white monkey that my son carried around when he was a baby, one day when they are settled into families of their own I will pass them back to them. I hope these quilts I am making for them this christmas become keepsakes/security blankets for them too, they are pretty sentimental about tings and that's good so we'll see. Good luck with yours

I saved each one of my childrens outfits that they wore home from the hospital and just recently gave them to each one. I have an embroidered pajama bag my mother made me when I was a baby. In England, back then, a pajama bag was made like a pillow case and a child placed their pajamas or nightgown in one and it was placed on top of the bed as a decoration and a way of putting your pajamas away. It is 70 years old now and it is aged looking like me but it's the only thing I have left that my mother made for me to remeber her by. Two of my grandsons still have their baby quilt I made for them. One of them is 25 years old. My time flies.

Have a good day everyone....I'm off to work.

I love those little cupcake style pincushions. One of these days I'll find a free pattern and make one. I'd like to put my different pin types in different pincushions.
