We have a buck stove that we used for many years with glass doors and then I became sick every time a log was lit and soon realized it was the molds and mildew that we brought in along with them. It will soon be 6 years since I have had that kind of illness and so I like seeing others with lit fireplaces now.

I really enjoyed seeing your outfits that you have sewed. I used to make all of my own clothes as a kid; then I had kids and sewed for them. Now I am sewing for the 18 inch dolls. When I do shop for clothes, it is very hard to find things that I like, but I doubt that I have the patience to sew anymore. Lovely post this time, too. We also went from the wood fireplace to gas logs in the new house, and they are wonderful and convenient. Have a good week.annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01668006270534204954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-19788428034065663592016-01-10T04:13:42.347-08:002016-01-10T04:13:42.347-08:00I'd sit by that cozy fire for awhile as well! ...I'd sit by that cozy fire for awhile as well!
