Neither here nor there.
Wow where did the summer go?
I had started a Baltimore Album quilt with hand applique. I have some of the pieces appliqued on each block and some in small zippered sandwich bags pinned to the background. I cut, turned under and pasted all the pieces. It is supposed to be my son's wedding quilt.
He is 38 now, was married for about 10 months. Now he has a girl friend. i will take it up again if it looks like he will marry again. I almost forgot about it. Sure hurt the fingers to sew, but it was a great project to take on vacation.
Dang. That is one gorgeous quilt! Love the stitching details.
I am still knitting the merino gator. Serious NM heat (and continuous hot flashes). I'm almost done, but only manage a few rows a day. Would much rather hand stitch 2" squares of cotton cloth together right now.
I still have the Shetland Marie Wallin Fairisle mits kit I haven't even opened. Gorgeous pattern, and she has a lovely tam in that book too, but NOT excited about more wool...maybe some time in late September.
How about knitting up a hemp tam for the warmer months?
