Cara, that new cuddle is going to be beautiful. Super job!

 

I went to HL today. Bought some gray RHSS yarn for my stash (it was on sale for 1.49 a skein) and some material that was on after Christmas sale (66 % off.) I also bought some 4 mm beads for some snowflakes I'll be crocheting.

C'mon in

 

 

 

Michael's and Lion Brand are having a contest. You can find the info at www.vannachoices.com

 

Oh and I didn't show y'all the cuddle that will be my first saltine project of the year. Here's a sneak peek. I think this one could come out very cute

 

My mom said I should join it & enter a scarf I designed. I know simplicity is great but I doubt it will even get anywhere near a prize. And besides... I really did grow out of wanting to be in the WOF audience when they stopped doing the shopping at the end of the show... really. I also saw that on the Sky thread. Its awesome.`

[econ-nerd]

Where are you on ravelry? And that is awesome you get to be one the pattern pages. I just got asked to have my picture on the round ripple tree skirt from here. Whenver I get asked to put my picture up on a pattern page I get all excited.

 

I'm there as econnerd (no - in my nickname like here) I added you as a friend

Well, the WOF part is okay but I don't travel real well. It'd be cool to go somewhere I guess. My sister could go with. She likes California...she's going again next week I just wanna be published somewhere other than my own site

[econ-nerd]

The saltine making machine is still at it...

 

Mary 45 more solids for me please

 

The purple ATW is getting closer to done. I am heading out of town on the 1st and would like to have it done before that but we shall see...

 

Bedtime for me...

[Misa]

You can do it, Karen Sleep well

Yay I will go check now!

I wanted to be vanna when I was a little girl. I loved watching that show. Oh the 80's when I was a kid & carefree....

My mother would love one of these for Christmas 2009. Will have to get one picked out!

 

Welcome to the group, you will really enjoy making these ghans.

Here is my finished Baby IC ghan. Not sure what to do with it yet. Might put it in the camphor chest with all the baby stuff Mum knitted and keep it for my girls for when they have kids, not sure yet.

That's very pretty, Wendy. Great job, as usual.

 

I'm awake, but that's about all that can be said for me at the moment. Think I need some tea. Have a good day. More later.

[Krystal16]

Oh, maybe that's what I need, too - a little caffeine... I'm dragging this morning thanks to this cold the kids have shared with me...

[Skysmom]

Join in anytime! There are so many wonderful patterns to choose from.

 

I've added 4 rows to the garden quilt since I last posted on here. So I have 64 solids to report tonight.

64 added! I love the garden quilt pattern and can't wait for an update picture.

It's so pretty, Wendy. Your colors are wonderful together.

[Krystal16]

Mary,

 

I forgot to tell you to take my name off the list. I ditched my STIC when I got rid of all my yarn scraps. I'll do one someday, but not for a while.

[Skysmom]

Thanks, Krystal. I'll take it off for now, but we expect you to be back.

[Misa]

Cara its beautiful, can I join you and make it at the same time.

 

Of course you can I'll be starting it the first of February

Gorgeous as always! I love the idea of getting things going for when you're a grandma

 

Oh, here she goes again...new temptations. It's beautiful, Cara!

 

Thank you dear

 

Thanks, Krystal. I'll take it off for now, but we expect you to be back.

 

Why yes, yes we do! I won't be happy until K becomes part of the itty bitty square brigade

 

Well, I got a fat lot of nothing done yesterday No laundry and only two measly little GT squares. I trawled other sections of the 'Ville and chatted and stared a lot. I was just so tired

 

But today I'm feeling nice and refreshed So laundry is definitely in my future

[econ-nerd]

When I have days like this I say I am thinking about a new research project

Sounds like my day . I had the day off and was planning on doing some crocheting. I know I paid bills, bought some workout DVDs from Amazon, spent some time looking for filet name doilies since I'm going to copy Linda for Christmas next year. Other than that, and a few rings on the baby blanket, I really don't remember what else I did before leaving the house.

[sewnsew]

Cara I'd love to try it as well if you don't mind.

[Misa]

I don't mind at all! The more the merrier

[sewnsew]

Oh I can't wait. What colors are you using? I was thinking of using blue in it.

 

Also what is the Joseph's coat quilt? I never caught the answer on that.

[Misa]

Sorry must've missed that. Here's the Joseph's coat. I'm in a muted color mood of late

 

On the angel I'm planning to use Windsor blue for the dress, gold or cornmeal for the band, burgundy or ILTYs cranberry for the border and aran or all that leftover Pounder Fisherman that I have left for the background.

[Krystal16]

Oh, Cara - that Joseph's coat is looking nifty!

 

And as for getting me to do a saltine project.... if you design a butterfly one JUST FOR ME, I'll do it. Nothing huge, please. I've looked at some graphics and thought about making my own, but you're so much better at it than I am.

[Krystal16]

Would any of these translate into a good saltine project?
