Hi ladies. I hope you have all had a good Valentine's Day. I'm making squares after a few days of working on the Dragonfly ghan.

 

Linda, I hope your internet problems are solved. Hope you're not wearing yourself out getting ready for company.

 

Cara ~ Pictures tomorrow?

Linda, I hope your internet problems are solved. Hope you're not wearing yourself out getting ready for company.

Thanks, Mary. I've done some stuff and still have some to do, but I'm sort of in the mood to say whatever I get done I get done and what I don't, oh well. I did lighten my hair this afternoon. It's naturally a very dark brown, but I have the skin tones of a red head, so I tend to lighten it so that it's more red than brown, in today's case it's mostly red and gold. I like it & that's what's important. John worked from home today, so that I could have my birthday off, which was nice.

Linda, I hope you've had a wonderful Birthday! The hair color sounds so pretty. I too am getting better at realizing I can't get it all done anymore.

[Misa]

Linda - It's your birthday?!? I never even knew. Well, a little late but.......

 

Happy Birthday, Linda!!

 

Mary - But of course I shall have photos tomorrow

[Skysmom]

Well, it's only taken me 75 squares, but I'm finally liking the colors for the Flower Quilt. I love the pattern-just couldn't decide about the colors.

 

It seems like so many have been sick or are sick...Feel Better Soon!

Thank you, everyone. Yes, I'm a Valentine birthday gal. Mom went to the doctor on the 13th and he sent her home. Grandma took one look at her and sent her to the hospital. But I waited until the 14th to arrive. In the midst of a blizzard no less. One of the guys in my high school graduating class and I were both born on the 14th. I had a very nice day yesterday.

K 12 solids for me today... thanks

 

Night all

 

Gotcha.. you're only a few points away from first place!

[Misa]

Good morning ladies

 

Linda - I'm glad you had a nice birthday Love the story about your birth. Just goes to prove mom always knows best

 

Wendy - Yep, I'll have a photo soon.

 

I'm gonna finish up block #3 first real quick before I post a photo. I'm almost there but I started feeling awful last night all of a sudden so I went to lie down All better this morning. Don't know what it was

[Skysmom]

Winter is back. Yesterday was 72 and tonight we may have sleet. I counted 8 varieties of birds in our yard this a.m.

Cara~Can't wait to see your new pattern.

 

Hi everyone!

[Misa]

Morning Mary It's kinda warm and muggy on our end of the interstate today But y'all always do get worse weather than we do even just 90 miles away.

 

Okay, here's the first 3 blocks of the one I'm calling Ribbons & Bows......

 

 

Nice spring colors I think. I think I'm gonna like this one a lot

[judianne]

Wow! That's beautiful, Cara! I don't know how those patterns don't make you dizzy - or maybe it did, which is why you didn't feel well last night;)

Terrific pattern and colors!!

[LeslieG]

Cara and Krystal, I think I am going to try and combine the Vanna's and the RH to see if I can come up with a pleasing assortment of colors. I can see the colors in my mind I would like to use, but, don't seem able to find exactly what I want.

 

I promised myself to try something I haven't done before and decided to tackle graphghans. I did a small square and with great tips from one of the Crochetville teachers (can't remember name:think) it worked out okay. She had just the right tips as I had attempted this before with poor results.

 

I work this evening and am going to try to get some crochet time in today.

[Skysmom]

It's wonderful, Cara! It truly looks like bows and ribbon.

 

Leslie, I think there is a Red Heart Classic yarn called Copper that might be another possibility.

That's lovely, Cara.

[tracysthings]

Very pretty, Cara.

[Super Granny]

cara, Mom had a quilt like that ...it was called spinning spools

[Aussie]

Cara your ribbons and bows is beautiful.

 

Today I woke up with a bad headache, so apart from looking at secret pal emails I have done nothing this morning. I might sew more squares together for my picture quilt.

[Misa]

Shelly - Yeah, it's a spool pattern but I just like calling 'em "bows" instead

 

Wendy - Oh you poor thing You just can't get any relief. Take care of yourself

DH is home and we're fixing a late Valentine's Dinner. I did get a few squares made this afternoon.

 

Wendy, I hope you're okay.

 

Have a great evening everyone.
