Hello!
I am starting working on several new projects. Some are Christmas gifts. So far I finished one.
This is the half way picture. And following, the finished scarf.
It is very simple pattern, since my knitting skills are a little rusted.
It will be a Christmas gift for my Mother-in-law. I love this shade of blue and hope she likes it too.
Now the projects I need to finish.
This will be one of the popular rainbow pencil rolls that are all over the net. I will use denim for the pocket and exterior.
Brenda will get it for Christmas. I will post the finished pencil roll when I finish.
And here are the 7" squares for a Christmas rag quilt. The back will be red flannel, and the top red corduroy and the Christmas paper dolls fabric.
I also started a new crochet basket, this time using t-shirt yarn. But I run out of t-shirts and the basket will have to wait.
I have some other projects that will be finished soon.
Now, some new treats I got recently.
A friend gave me this beautiful Moda Jelly roll. It is from the Hometown collection. It is the first time a have a jelly roll and I am trilled. It is a quite pricey little thing, really a treat because I only buy fabric by the yard at Joann using a coupon. I never buy pre cut fabrics and rarely buy fabric at other places. I don't have many choices around here.
I am still deciding what to do with this beauty.
I was crazy for this magazine. The new Just Cross Stitch Magazine Sept/Oct. My husband stopped by a Joann super store on his way from work to get me one. The two Joann's near by don't carry Just Cross Stitch.
And look what I got in the mail today. The Christmas Ornaments Special Issue and the new Halloween book. They are beautiful. I ordered about two weeks ago! Silver Needle was very busy.
As you can see, I have enough to keep me busy for a while.
Thanks for stopping by!
Ana Paula.
