Done w/Alissa's...

So I'm done with Alissa's blanket. I'm happy with the way it turned out :-) Hope she'll like it!

I also still have about 8+ hats for the NICU I just haven't taken pictures yet. Will do that when we get back from vacation and post...hopefully I'll have the chance to do another 2 or 3 while gone.

At last...Amy's unofficial shower

So Amy is due in about a month. Baby boy Cole (aka Bean as I call him) is almost here...it'll be Great to have another little boy in our circle of friends!! Gave Amy her blanket as well as Caelyn who got the Carebear blanket previously posted...Both seemed to like :-) It was a good night with lots of fun. Now I believe I'm doing a quilt for my niece...another picture one actually...must be done before June 3rd. Will post when complete of course.

Also in the last few months I've completed a couple adult women chemo caps. Gave those to a local charity who can put them to good use. Come to think of it, I don't believe I even took pictures of those. Also have completely another couple preemie hats. Will try and remember to take a picture to post...Just been busy busy working on various projects. I LOVE it when I finish things!!

about 36 weeks

Soooo long...

So it's been super long since the last post...been super busy with Tastefully Simple stuff as well as random other 'life' stuff. I have finished a couple things.

Caden's nap roll which was made @ the end of Dec/beginning of Jan. He absolutely LOVES it...used double sided fleece on the inside so it's sooo super soft...

Other thing I finished just this past weekend is this Carebear blanket. Made it for a friend's little girl...working on her new son's blanket now...that one is of course all monkey :)

I have some other blankets planned but I can only do one at a time... :) Will post more as I go!!

After Christmas

So I can now post what I accomplished before Christmas. Love the way my mom's came out...not perfect but what is...for the most part I'm happy with it. The other blanket I didn't love but she's happy with it so I guess I'll leave it at that! Next up, a nap roll for Caden!

Mom's of course

Been awhile again...

With Christmas looming I've been busting my behind to try and get this quilt done for my mom...still not done but here it stands as of last night.

Finally finished the hat below...it's long overdue! Planning to take it to the hospital this weekend with all the other hats I have completed over the last couple months...

Also trying to finish up a blanket for my little sister...she's been telling me for the last couple years she needs a new one...it's not my favorite but it's a blanket that I had already started and decision to give her one wasn't made until a couple days ago so I'm having time crunch issues!

Other than that home improvements are going down this weekend so I hope I can finish the blankets in time to get them sent for X-Mas!

Finally

Alright even though I have no readers/followers I at least like to keep this updated for myself. It's been almost a month since my last post...eek...BUT, we've had Caden sick, actually more than once...I think I was sick in there again...and some Tastefully Simple parties/events. Haven't had much extra time to work on anything. Plus lunch at work has been taken up by other things and by making up time so I haven't even been knitting as much. Haven't made knit group in several weeks! I miss that time but at the same time it's good I've had some TS stuff. So anyhow, I've got several quilts which must remain nameless right now as some are gifts...Here is what I finished on Sat...

First time ever doing triangles plus I did a zigzag stitch for decoration so I am fairly satisfied with how it turned out...when I fold it up it's pretty much the exact same size all around which is awesome...I guess the only thing is that it is very square...but since I'm still learning it's all good...the one I'm working on now is a Carebears quilt and I know for a fact it is not so square! Oh, also on Friday night I cut and did the colorfast treatment on some photos for another quilt...after Carebears I HAVE to get going on that one! So I guess this is all for now...

Accomplishments

NONE! Sick again this weekend w/strep...AGAIN...wondering why I'm all of the sudden getting it again. It's been 4 or 5 years since I had it last!

Did start cutting squares for my next quilt...anxious as I'm trying to plan this and really hoping this one turn out...of course each should get better than the last...practice makes perfect...hope to cut more for that one tonight after the boys are in bed. We'll see...Caden did NOT have a good night so we're all kind of tired! I guess we'll see...hopefully I'll have something to show by this weekend!
