The Hat Lady (Gma)

My family has always been big into 'projects'.  Mom always likes likes to have something to do while she visits to keep her busy when we are at work.  In the past years it's been charity quilts, dolls, crochet washcloths, and keeping up with my mending and ironing.  This year she wasn't interested in crocheting but started making 'comfort caps' for cancer patients. My quilt guild donated them to the area chemo centers.  It's a cute reversible had that is soft and comfortable.  It's made with T shirt knit which can be hard to find.  We've made the same hat for Mere's softball team in high school (fleece) and Mom has made hats for her Red Hat group.  We found lots of fabric at the ARC (thrift) and so far she has completed 75 hats.  I think it gives her a purpose and keeps her brain active.  She says it is also relaxing. Way to go Mom!
