Sunny your making great progress on those saltines. I hope you got your gray yarn.

 

Linda the dachshund quilt would be great. Wow you have quite a lot of saltine projects on the go now.

 

Shelly Im glad your flowers are ok.

 

Tracy way to go with the saltines.

Shelby, please come and join us at the saltine roundup. Cara's patterns are so much fun to make. It always amazes me how pretty they turn out. Watching the pattern emerge is half the fun.

Good morning ladies :yawn

 

Mary - Another great gingham! :clap

 

Sunny - Glad you found the grey.

 

Linda - You're so bad :lol Okay, I admit I'm bad about starting one even though I swore I'd get something else done first :lol

 

For some reason the idiots next door have decided to make a lot of racket first thing in the morning :irk BD can sleep through the noise. I can't.

 

I didn't get as many saltines done yesterday as I had hoped. Somehow we ended up painting the kitchen :blush But now it's the same buttery yellow as the rest of the house. I had it painted way too dark the first time.

 

But today my keester is staying right here on this couch with my hook :hook

Hi Cara, so glad you got your kitchen painted!

 

I'm off to finish gathering up things for DD's shrub beds...we definitely won't get this all done tomorrow. :lol We're calling this Phase I.

 

Have a great morning, all. :)

Well, DN had the day off today and he was bored so we went grocery shopping. That was painful. It was meat week :P But now we're good for a couple of weeks :D

 

Forgot about taking a photo of the current ghan. It's a masculine contemporary one for my BILs new house.

It's gorgeous, Cara! Definitely masculine and a great pattern. :hook DD and her DH have a wonderful old detached garage with a narrow room on the back...Her DH calls it his "someday man's room" ... maybe he needs his own man's room ghan. :D

Tomorrow is Phase I in the yard at DD's. So, because it was a picture-perfect day, I mowed the front and back, fertilized all my plants and now I am wondering if I'll have the energy for DD's yard. :lol

 

Oh! And I made more squares for the blue gingham this evening. :hook

Cara, I like the manly ghan for BIL. It definitely looks like a guys ghan.

Mary, sounds like you have really been busy outside. Have fun at it today, too.

Sunny, can't wait to see the pics.

I forgot to take mine until it was too dark. I'll get some up today.

It's been nice getting to know John's parents better, but I have to admit it will be nice when the house gets back to normal.

Hay fever season is winding down, which is nice. Unfortunately, it means the stuff I'm allergic to is now in bloom. My head is stuffed up and feels the size of a beach ball. It usually only lasts 7 - 10 days so it should be getting better by the end of next week. :sick

Have a great day, everyone.
