We had a visitor at The Bee office late last week. Marjorie Czarsty, an amazing seamstress, stopped by to show us her “Pinghu,” a stuffed penguin she created from old sweaters, for her granddaughter. Marjorie volunteers with The Cornerstone in Newtown, and rather than toss out the old wool sweaters the consignment shop receives that can’t be sold, she cuts them up, felts the pieces, and creates felted wool purses — and penguins. Marjorie even knitted little mittens for the penguin. Pinghu is already destined for his new home, in the arms of Marjorie’s granddaughter.—Bee Photo, Crevier
