Absence Makes The Heart Grow Fonder


Has it really been over a month since my last post?!?  

I've been so busy and tired lately that it has just slipped my mind. I feel like I'm being pulled in a hundred different directions. I've gotten almost no sewing done. It seems like I just can't get motivated to sit down at my sewing machine.

I have been learning to knit though, and doing pretty well. Just for the sake of pictures here are a few things I've been working on.

I turned this skein of yarn...


Into this Oaklet shawl! (I hadn't woven in the ends yet, that's why there is a tail)


And I made an Age of Brass and Steam Kerchief 


This yarn is seriously amazing. It's Madinetosh DK in Firewood and it's beautiful 



I am Loving knitting. Seriously loving it. I promise to be back with more quilt pictures soon though. I still have a couple finished quilts to show you!
