Julie - I hope your feeling better

 

I feel for you ladies who have had to frog the whole thing. I think I would scream. I'm trying to be really careful so I don't have to frog too much. I made it through row 15 last night. Also thanks for the well wishes. I'm trying really hard not to stess. I have an ultrasound today (pre surgery stuff) so I'm hoping that goes well.

Hi girls,

I haven't been able to work on mine since that first night. I'm still on round 20. Hubby had surgery on his hand, so I have to drive, and that cuts into a lot of crochet time. Also, I have to finish DGS sweater in 2 weeks. I love to see pics of your progress. I'll be able to work more on it after the sweater is done.

I'm working on 19. I showed my mom tonight and she was shocked how much I have gotten done in 2 days while taking care of a 2 year old, being sick and keeping our house clean. Although I feel like its not much at all. If my stupid arm didnt hurt so bad it would be a lot easier.

 

Oh and I didn't get a pic :blush I will make sure I do tommarow. Tommarow is my day to relax so I should get a chance :D

I'm on row 33. Slow going this week as I went back to work. But I'm off for the next 3 days and since I have to be home cause I'm getting work done in my house my goal is to put a big dent in this project. I'd like to say finish it but I know better.:P

Here's a pic of my L&B. Its my second attemp, the first one wouldnt lie flat in the center. (still don't know what I did wrong :think ) I'm not following the pattern with color placement. I'm just using whatever I have enough of, I hope the color combo doesnt start to hurt my eyes:eek . You'll have to excuse my unmade bed. One of my little dogs was still sleeping under the covers (notice the lump above and to the right of my ghan), she cops a "tude" if I wake her before she's ready.

Kathy -

 

That is just bee-ooo---teee--full ! I love it ! The colors actually seem to match your bedspread colors. Did you intend for it to be used in your bedroom, or was that just a coincidence ?

 

It sure is turning out to be a pretty pattern, isn't it ?

 

I'm on row 41 now. I keep telling myself I'm halfway done, although I'm lying to myself . Each round gets bigger and bigger, so I'm not actually halfway done, just half done with the number of rounds !

 

Keep up the great work ,you're doing a really nice job .

No, its not for me :( actually I planned to give it to my FIL for Fathers Day. It matches my living room furniture better much better than my bed. I'm not sure which round I'm on, its the one after the first round of bobbles (I hope there isnt another row of those)

Kathy -

 

You and me are both almost at the same place then. I know what you mean about the bobbles-- pain in the rump .

 

I bet there will be more though ! :angry

 

Well, maybe if you like the pattern enough and want to , you could make yourself one next !

Just an early morning wake up call

For those of you that are on the ball. :sun

 

 

Up and At 'em , it's time to crochet

What a better way to start the day ? :hook

 

 

On the East coast or the West

Wake up early, it's for the best ! :D

 

 

Look at all you can do early in the day !

You can put on enough make-up to look like Tammy Faye ! :eek

 

 

You can have some eggs and read a book ,

Come on now, don't give me that look ! :book

 

 

You can make a scarf or gloves or hat !

I bet you know someone who needs something like that ! :wgrin

 

 

It's COLD here where I am , anything handmade would be nice

So someone's hands won't feel cold as ice . :wbrr

 

 

Like Mr. Rogers always used to sing, It's a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood "

Use your crochet talent today and DO SOME GOOD .:manyheart

WOW Kathy that is gorgeous, what lovely colors! So far striking without being overwhelming!

 

I can't wait to get started on mine! I hope my mailman brings my book today! I supposed it's good that it isn't here yet though since I have several hug-ghans to do - I'm really going to have to pace myself with the L&B so my other projects don't get neglected! :lol

Oh my gosh, Julie!

You crack me up! This is soooo cute. :rofl

I wish I was one at home deciding what to do rather than here at work deciding what to do.

I'd be working on my L&B for sure!! I'm getting very inspired by everyone who is so much further along than I! Keep up the GREAT work, ladies!! :hug

Happy Friday!!

Wow, Kathy! That is gorgeous! That's how I envision mine to look if I ever get to it. I only have 1 or 2 hours a day (If I'm lucky) to crochet and I have other things going on. I'm dying to start this, though!

 

I have a pooch that sleeps in the bed, too. I know what you mean about copping a tude! Mine gives me the big stink eye when I have to drag her out of bed at 6 am so I can leave for the day. Thankfully, it's been in the 80's here and only getting into the high 50's at night so she won't freeze!
