not for the faint hearted

Today's hand sewing projects managed to stab myself a few times with the needle. Also got a burn from my iron.


Maybe I'm just a klutz.


Tomorrow is friday. YAY!

Random is GOOD



The view in my car this morning. My lovely little Neon is 100 miles away from 100,000 miles.


Hey!

Here goes nothing...

Thought I'd start me up a blog to keep track of all my crafty projects.

Mostly I knit and quilt. I have been known to crochet and try my hand at other crafts as well.

I'm hoping to use this to help me remember when and what I've got started. (And hopefully finishing!) Last week I got motivated to get some projects out of the "graveyard."

A christmas colored sock, started in 2006 or something... The first (and probably only) sock I'll ever make. Its mate has been very lonely, and waiting patiently... or not

I've also got a lace shawl I'm SO close to being finished with. It was my very first attempt in lace. talk about jumping into the deep end! It refuses to take a good picture tonight. Oh well, lace knitting always looks like a yarn blob till its blocked anyways.





What I wish I was working on - my Wonderland quilt. This was also another first - my first use of prairie points. Go me!



And here's what I should be working on, instead of blogging... back to work!
