It's Show And Tell Time!
The computer is finally back to normal again, and I have pictures to prove that I have actually been working! The current wedding quilt is coming along so nicely right now. I got a ton of piecing done this weekend when Ben and I were stuck in the house being sickies (which I still am). I keep looking at my bag of squares to sew and thinking just how much I have to go, even with all of the fabric not cut yet. It took me over a year to do the Wedding Spectacularrrr quilt, and this one's got a lot more piecing and quilting than that one did. As of this Friday, the 8th, I have exactly one year.
There's a lot more to do, isn't there?
But during the time when I'm not working on that, I've been keeping myself busy with the knitting. I finally finished the blue scarf that I ripped out and started again, and I've also started a fuzzy orange one. I love the color orange, and have no idea when I'll ever use an orange scarf, but it's fun anyway.
and....
If nothing else, I'll be able to wear that one for Halloween.
And finally, after several weeks of stress, I finally recieved my new quilt rack. Finally! I'm really happy with it too, but I found out, that there really wasn't a good place to put it in my house. Its location is still somewhat to be determined, but for now its sitting at the end of the hallway, just inside our office.
The green quilt on the front is the first I ever made, for my now husband as a high school graduation present. It took me a year and a half into his time at college to actually finish it. The one behind it is a quilt titled "Bloom," made by my Granny. She's the recipient of the blue, yellow and green quilt I'm working on. Which, by the way, is still causing me major stress and headaches, since I still haven't decided how to finish quilting it. I figured some time away from it would help me.
Whew! That was a long post!
