Pioneer Day

What a great time we had at Pioneer Day.  The weather was cool but not too cold, just cold enough to bring out the wool sweaters : )

I was able to finish Livie's longies (again) and making the thighs wider worked like a charm.  It took every second of spare time yesterday to rip out the legs and redo them in time but I am so glad that I was able to finish them because she was nice and toasty the entire day.
