Here are clickable pics of my yellow gingham ghan complete, rose shawl in progress, and a closeup of the rose shawl stitches.

 

 

 

 

On my monitor the yellows don't show as bright and clear as they actually are. I think they are the perfect yellows for this. BTW, I used ILTY in white, buttercup, and yellow with the yellow being the bright one and the buttercup is a little lighter.

 

Very nice! I think I may have to make myself one of those ginghams! I'm thinking tablecloth size would be nice - maybe in blues and cream or white?

10 more solids for me please. Managed to get a bit more done during a power outage here this morning Now it's time to shower and head to the office (late but the power was out there so no use hurrying to get there )

Nope, it's not the guy from the Muppets... keep guessing!

[jmccrochet]

Isn't it the mean guy who didn't want the children to have toys in one of the Christmas specials? I can't remember which one.

Good Morning, Ladies.

 

Linda ~ Your gingham is wonderful! Those yellows are great together. The shawl is very pretty, too.

 

Welcome, Patty! What colors are you thinking about for the Spinning Wheels?

 

Karen, 10 more added

 

Joyce, as long as you're lining up the stitches as you join, it will be fine. When I made my first quilt ghan, I had to fudge a little because it had been years since I'd done whipstitching.

[Krystal16]

Joyce, you're close! It seems that everyone in the CALs has been guessing.. someone in SKY has gotten it.

[jmccrochet]

OK, totally cheated. He's the whose doorstep Santa Clause ended up on. Bergermeister Meisterberger, thanks to the SKY CAL

I've been following along and slowly working on my own project! Okay, projecs since I can never have just one simple one.

 

There are some wonderful crochet quilts on here! keep up the great work! I love seeing new projects and new graphs!!

 

Cara... are you going to bring back on the gallery on you website?

[Klutzandme]

So many pretty projects going! Great job everyone!

 

I have 33 more squares done and 12 or so more joined. Gotta love days when you don't have to clean. (well i should but......)

Good morning, everyone. I'm awake. I think. We are not moving very fast here today. I was telling the grandchildren "lights out" and "go to sleep" still at 10:30 or 11:00 last night. And Kim was awake until midnight. She's sleeping in this morning.

 

Patty, welcome to the group! Cara's patterns and patterns of others inspired by her are addictive in the extreme. I've had at least one in process since I found them, usually two.

 

Priszm, Oops indeed! At least there are still 3 weeks until they are due. You can get them done!

 

Linda M, your yellow gingham is GREAT!!! I love the way the yellows came together. It would cheer anyone up no matter what their mood. :yay

 

Karen, I think that blues and cream or white would be great in the gingham! I find it amazing how many different color schemes we come up with for these patterns and they all look stunning.

 

More later.

[busy-bee-lmt]

Smith, your project is gorgeous! Great job! :yay Welcome to the group! You don't have to lurk just because it's your own pattern. Cara has inspired a number of us to come up with patterns of our own.

[Priszm]

Priszm, Oops indeed! At least there are still 3 weeks until they are due. You can get them done!

 

If it's a little late, it's a little late Sooo, anybody have any good ideas regarding where I can get a nice, functional recipe card box? Bed Bath and Beyond only has 2, Linens N Things has I think one. I'm going to stop at The Rolling Pin after work to see what they have. Otherwise, I might be close to out of ideas

[busy-bee-lmt]

Joyce, you did what I was tempted to do but hadn't gotten around to yet. Way to go! :rofl

[Misa]

Patty - Welcome to the group

 

Smith - Oh wow!! Your Criss Cross looks great! And yes, soon as DH gets the new site ready then the gallery will be back

 

Linda M - OMG!! That yellow gingham is amazing! I love it

 

Oh I miss my little squares. Might have to pull that old ATW outta the basket this weekend

[tracysthings]

Linda M, I love the gingham in yellow!

 

Smith, the cross one is gorgeous, love those colours together.

 

Linda, you could always take a nap like Cara does.

 

Cara, stop those withdrawal symptoms and grab your ATW, quickly!

[busy-bee-lmt]

Mary ~ another block's worth of saltines for me: 24 solids, 4 bi-color, and 8 four-colors.

 

I'm hoping for a nap this afternoon.

I hope you got a nap in! The grandkids sound like they're keeping you and Kim very busy. I added your squares - super progress!

sprtsbear ~ I love the Fall ghan and it's a perfect time to start! A few of us started it about this time last year.

 

Sunny ~ Yay for progress pictures!
