Finally, another finish


This was a weekend mystery that I got finished on the following Wednesday. Then it took probably another 8 months to get it quilted and bound.

Days for Girls project





I've been working on this project off and on for a couple of months: daysforgirls.org

This uses up the flannel I had on hand (I have since received a tote of flannel which I'll get working on as soon as I get to the laundromat to get it washed and dried.
I'll be sending:
27 shields
30 drawstring bags
100 regular menstrual pads
27 post partum pads

Quilts for tornado victims in Kentucky and Indiana


This is when I feel I really should have done more to follow through on my New Year's resolutions. I could have had a lot more quilts to send to the tornado victims. These are the 6 I have on hand that I'll be sending tomorrow. These have already appeared here on my blog as they were finished, probably in December and January.

Baby Charity Knits


The blue hats and sockies were made on the 965 using Baby Jacquard. The pink hats made on the bulky using Simply Soft. I'm sending them to Florida for the January project for AC4C.

Recycling


I recently bought a nifty little machine called a Bind it All. It punches holes and then it squeezes the wire loops together to make a neat little book.

Another Scrap Afghan



This is number 2 of the Knots on Front Afghans. I'm taking a break for awhile because most of my fun colors are used up. There will be more and it will be sooner than I think.

Mittens


These mittens were made on the Bulky 270 using one strand of sport weight yarn and one strand of variegated sock yarn.
