(1964 November 2)
I am making a blue and navy checked duster for Aunt Lois who can't be fitted in store-boughten clothes as she likes shirts fairly long. She can wear this either as a robe or dress. May include sample. Is cuddly. Put the collar on this aft and have the pockets and buttons left.
Polly Kay (1904-1997) vividly and with humor describes her life in Richland Center, Wisconsin, in excerpts from letters to her son Skip written after 1949, including her 5 last years in an old folks' home.
