Thanks ladies. I finished the bus & thankfully so because there is only a tiny pebble sized ball left of the yellow. :whewI would've never been able to match up since it was just a scrap ball in my stash with no label.

 

 

Julie~No, I had to come home & my sis doesn't have a phone until Thursday. She just moved there last week. She was suppose to go call the landlord when we left. I'm curious myself.

Tabby that was lucky. Im glad you had enough yellow to finish.

Im always worried if Im going to have enough yarn to finish something.

 

Linda way to go with the ripples. Cant wait to see the progress on this one.

[JulieKay]

Tab- glad to hear you had enough to finish the bus -- that'd be bad if you had to try and find another yellow to exactly match it ...

 

and by the way, this is in the wrong thread, but thanks for calling me the biggest NUT in the can .

 

If I'm gonna BE one, then I want to be the BIGGEST .

Tabby I'm glad you had enough yellow to finish the bus. I worry about that all the time. Especially with the LB cuddle.

Hi everyone, sounds like the shopping went well. Enjoy your Sunday's.

Your welcome, it was my pleasure

[Skysmom]

Good Morning, all.

 

Tabby, yay for having enough yellow! You are really fast at putting this one together.

 

Hi Tracy~How have you been? What are you working on?

 

Hi to Miss Julie, Wendy, and Donna, too.

 

It's still really cold and rainy. Today is DD's birthday and they're coming over this afternoon after meeting friends for brunch.

[Misa]

Good morning ladies

 

Tabby - Talk about your planning! I'm glad you had enough of the yellow for squares. Can't wait to see it done

 

Mary - Wish DD a happy birthday from us, too

 

Julie - You know you'll always be the Big Nut around here :2hug

 

Still rainy and cold here today too. Not as cold as yesterday though it seems. I'm about ready to turn that heat off. Big Daddy got a chill. Guess it's okay to turn the heat on when it drops below 40 But it's 40 degrees right now. Time to think about turning that thing off. I'm baking in here and it's on as low as it'll go

 

Think I'm gonna make my purse today with that lovely suede yarn I picked up at the Michaels sale. Of course the handles I have myself almost talked into at LaBeana Bags are 25 bucks! I'll have to think on that one

 

Have a great day y'all

[tracysthings]

Hello Mary, fine here, just icy cold, I miss the sun. Been working on lapghans as christmas presents, finished my grandfathers one and just have to make one for my grandmother, then one for my cousin and will see how much time before deciding if time to make more. Have to make DD hat and scarf for a roadtrip we are planning to Scotland for Christmas.

[busy-bee-lmt]

Morning, all. I'm up and have a pot of vegetable soup simmering on the stove. It's got left over turkey and some diced little smokies in it, too, for extra flavor. (And 6 bouillian cubes.) And an assortment of spices.

I have to go out in the garage and organize the freezer next. John is bringing home a bunch of the venison and we need a place to put it. (He just dumps things in, so it never stays organized long.) Once that's done it's vaccuuming time and then I can crochet.

I'm up to row 26 on DDs RR. Once that is done I can wrap everything and send their box on its way. I have to finish a couple of crocheted collars for one SIL (just have to sew on buttons, starch and iron it) and then the box that goes to my Mom's can get wrapped and sent, too. A box to another SIL to send & then everything that has to mailed is done. Woo Hoo!!! And it's still November!!! :jumpyay

[Skysmom]

Wow, you all have been so busy!

 

Cara, a purse with the suede yarns sounds wonderful. Please show us pictures.

 

Linda, your day sounds hectic. Congratulations on all the FOs...what fun to get them done and mailed this far ahead!

 

Hi Tracy, you have done so much! (Did I say we love pictures? ) Oh, I would love to see England and Scotland some day. My sister was there a few years ago and loved seeing your country.

:rofl

[JulieKay]

Great, Linda-- you are really getting a lot accomplished !

 

Morning Miss Mary- have a fun day today .

[sewnsew]

Good afternoon ladies.

 

Cara, I can't wait to see the purse.

 

Here is a picture of the ladybug cuddle half finished.

[QueenOfCrochet]

Cara, did you just quote YOURSELF??? IS that weird?

 

 

Maybe we should nominate a new head NUT. :rofl

[QueenOfCrochet]

Donna~Your ladybug cuddle is coming along beautifully. Very cute.

 

 

I have been working away on the bus cuddle again today. This week should be good for crocheting because the hubster has some horrible hours. He has to work from 4 a.m. until noon all week. So when he comes home he's pooped & takes a nap. I love when he doesn't have any plans, it makes it so much easier to be lazy.

[tracysthings]

I will try to put pictures on tomorrow, as my sister also wants to see what a wavy blanket looks like. She thinks it might be too girly for her 6-year old son. I said I was going to make him one in red & blue or red with black (he is a spiderman fan) but she thinks it is too girly! So I need to take picture so she can see it is for boys as well.

Since we moved to the UK I haven't visited many places. I visited my friend in London when I lived in Great Yarmouth, then moved to London and visited Great Yarmouth, now I have moved to Rugby and visited London. My mom wanted to go to Paris for Christmas, but she couldn't get visa in time, so my stepdad got his way and we are doing a roadtrip to Scotland with a few stops on the way. mmm, he has a new car, I wonder how much space he has for my crocheting to keep me busy while we drive?

[Aussie]

Howdy doody everyboody.

 

Its now only 29 days till Xmas. Just thought I would let you know that.

 

Donna I love your ladybug ghan. You have done quite a bit on it.

 

Linda congratulations on getting everything done. Your just amazing at how many ripples you have made.

 

Tracy cant wait to see your wavy blanket and that will be a nice trip for you to Scotland. Have you been there before and does it take long to get there.

[tracysthings]

Wendy, I haven't been to many places in the UK since we moved here 5 and a half years ago. My stepdad has been to Scotland (he went on honeymoon without my mom when they got married 2 years ago cos she had to work) so he has wanted to take my mom ever since. We are just tagging along for the ride and to get away for Christmas. I think there was mention yesterday of an 8-hour drive and would my DD be able to cope with that. Will just have her Nintendo DS with and hope that will keep her busy.
