    or one of those dress up geese I have a hand sculpted copper angel that I just love I bought it about 13 years ago and it still looks good. Do you dress up your goose?

    Yes, I have a porch goose with outfits for the different seasons/holidays. I designed them myself and knitted them on my knitting machine.

    Like my quilting stash, I have a machine yarn stash. LOL Years ago, there was a couple in TN that sold yarn at excellent prices. I just tried to Google them, but cannot find them. However, there are other dealers on Google and there are some good sources who sell on Ebay.

    I have a cute little gnome, about 10" tall...My Mom does the goose thing with all the clothes. And my neighbor has 2 pink flamingos that I bought for them a couple years ago...it was a joke and their granddaughter loves them, so they can't get rid of them.
