Nicole, did you really use the word "Christmas" already? Oh dear. That reminds me that I swore I was going to make quilted place mats for everyone on my list this year. Sounded like a great idea in January.

I did that last year. And it turned out to be a lot more work than anticipated.

Finished a beanie hat today waiting for a dr appt. Need to tuck in the ends and I'll post a picture.

 

hat for the mission. Always wanted to try cables and found out not only are they not very hard, they are a bit of fun too!

Lovely!!!! :cheer

 

The weather has my hands aching like mad so haven't accomplished much this weekend. I have to get cracking on the quilt today. I found the backing material yesterday while I was out and about, so that was good.

Great work everyone!

 

Mary - The hat is lovely.

 

I haven't gotten much done. A friend moved into a new house last week. I was over there all weekend helping him paint, etc. We had fun though...only a little sore today.

I just finished the second blanket. i just need to tuck the ends.

I got the first four strips of the quilt sewn together and most of the 5th strip sewed together before getting mixed up and sewing the last two strips on the wrong end. So off to the frog pond for me. I hope to have the top together by tomorrow.

For this month I:

Made Two Uglee Dolls

Assembled the top of a Girl's Quilt

[nicolep]

The uglee dolls are as cute as ever, Linda. The quilt looks gorgeous so far. I so wish I could do something like that.

I finished 6 hats this month. Sorry, haven't had a chance to take pics.

Nice quilt Linda! I am a quilter too. Have a long arm machine. So I spend more time looking at other people's work than finishing my own!

Anyway, I can't find the hat I made that needs to have the ends tucked in. I have to hide yarn work with the foster kittens around! I did make these little toys from fleece scraps. They will go to the shelter.

Oh and of course the uglees are cutee. Where will they go?

[babypoohsmom]

Oh Mary., I just scrolled back a page. Your hats are SO nice.

Oh Mary., I just scrolled back a page. Your hats are SO nice.

 

Thanks..now I just have to get pictures of the other 2 I made off the same pattern!

Nice hats and kitty toys. The Uglee dolls will go to a fundraiser for a friend with huge medical expenses.
