Okay, I actually did 2 and 1/2 squares last night...I will be joining squares a little differently than pattern calls for. I'm not a fan of sewing squares, I'd rather crochet them together, but I do so in a different way...I'll share when project's done.

 

Experiencing a nice sunrise this morning. We have no snow where I am...but Harry didn't go to work today where he is (Virginia) he's got snow up the wazoo...

I now get to pick my knitting back up -- am still on square 4 . I feel like one of them hamsters on a wheel -- been doing the same thing for days ..Time to get something new started.

Hurry up Friday ~~~

Hi, Jules! Maybe you left the knitting on the side too long and you got out of the rhythm??

 

I only need 72 squares for what I have in mind, so I adjusted my square **** in my siggy to reflect that.

 

Off to sit with SDR for a bit - been putting in a lot of time on the fire truck ghan....which made me feel good when the dad-to-be brought his snow blower over this AM and cleared the driveway and sidewalk for us!

Hey gang --

Tam - the afghan is gorgeous!

 

Cindy- glad you got yours complete. I know the sewing it together wasn't much fun for you !

 

Athba -- we will probably pull another project together in awhile, but I think a lot of the ladies are going to do the Flannelghan for the Games first, which starts Friday sometime and will run for 16 days .

 

Some of the ladies are still in the Happy House area working on quiltghans if you want to start your flower garden one. That would qualify for a quilt-ghan and I'm sure they'd like your company if you want someone else who is making quilts along with you .

 

It'll be awhile til we start something new .

 

I've also been trying my hand at knitting ,so that is what I am doing now until Friday gets here .

 

Still snowing here,folks... geez, this is getting to be ENOUGH already .....

Sherri - that's a good question. I think I get anxious to complete something when it's close to being done, because I want to work on something new, so it seems like it takes forever to get it done.

I don't know.. I guess most of us always have something else waiting to work on next and we are impatient to get the first thing done so we can do the next .

Beautiful flannelghan!!!:clap:clap:clap

 

Well, Jules...I can see up the street about 3 houses... after that it's all WHITE:lol

The patio table has well over a foot of snow on it.:P

 

The dogs - even my old lady, Susie - act like pups in this!:D

 

Okay - back to getting their food ready.

Hey Athba

Well, by practicing , I mean learning. I got a book that has different stitches in it so you can learn them step by step . I always wanted to learn to knit, but it seems much harder than learning to crochet .

I would agree with you on the baby quilt-ghan. If it's a girl, then the flower garden one would match better, but if it's a boy, the penguin one would be better .
