October Crafting at the Mill




I had the pleasure visiting with crafter and writer Darlene Kenaga of Mountain View, Missouri. She is a quilter, knitter, tatter and rug maker. She has also written and printed her own book about her youth, "Four Kids in a Model-A". The book is only sold at events she is attending, like ours at the mill. She was there to sign books and demonstrate her crafting. I am always amazed at the skills people of the Ozark have and use on a daily basis. You just don't see this anymore in the modern city lifestyles of today. It was nice to stop and just listen to what she had to share. And she is a wonderful teacher of her crafts, a very patient.
