Project list update
Right now I'm still working on the United We Stand afghan, I'm about 2/3 done with it - it's broken down into 3 sections - the star row and surrounding stripes, I've done and stitched together 2 and have the whites of all my stars done and 2 of them have blue. They go pretty quick so I'm hoping to have it done by this weekend. And although I should have brought the stars with me to work on at work during lunch I didnt. I started something newThe Pillow Ghan. This has become the bane of my existance! I looked at it again yesterday and I was very good - I did not throw it across the room! I have 5 squares to finish that all have 5-6 rows (all different colors) to go, then stitching it together (after I figure out HOW to stitch together a pillowghan). I am stuck because one of my rows I need RHSS medium sage and apparently I bought it on clearance and they dont make it anymore. Not at Joanns, not at walmart, I need to check Michaels. I put it on my RAOK wish list, maybe some sweet soul can check their stash and part with half a skein - I dont need much - Really! SO, that is on hold with a reason!!
That's actually it, 3 projects - the purse (which will be done today), the patriotic afghan and the pillowghan. WOO HOO - gives me room to find something else to work on. ;)
Finished - I finished the cowboy booties that I needed for the sale and I also whipped up a pair of fireman booties (her hubby is a firefighter) as a perk (shh, it's a secret). Hopefully that will make her more inclined to bring me more business. It was so fun wrapping the little things and making the thank you card - I did a nice job and I was very proud.
I also did another bag from the In The Bag book - highly modified, but it was my first thing with handles. Lucky for me Joanns has handles 1/2 off this week so I got 2 pair. The one I did was red homespun & red fun fur together in a little 6x6 pocket purse and a pair of 4.5 inch bamboo D shape handles. I forgot to take a pic before I packed it up. I now have a wood (not the bamboo kind) 5" O handles that I need to find a good purse to go with.
I think that's it.
