Aunt Martha's Workbasket, January 1937


Patterns for the baby outfit on the cover, a Russian blouse for a schoolgirl, "Dutch Boy" quilt embroidery pattern, how to make yarn flowers, lots of pattern offers, and household tips (including how to get your little girl interested in doing dishes. An apron of her very own should do the trick).

All This Without Opposible Thumbs, Mind You



We were mystified by a trail of Swiffer cloths through the house; then I found the box, clawed open and half empty, on the spare room carpet.



Someone likes to nap on the spare room windowsill.   

UPDATE:  I replaced the Swiffer cloths with a knitted shawl.  I found the shawl tossed out onto the floor this morning.  Imma gonna hafta lock up the Swiffer box.

Caturday!
