Good morning.
I got a decent amount of squares for my blanket crocheted yesterday - 6 in total - so was very pleased with myself. I'm doing 120 x 6" squares in shades of blue & cream for a big blanket for our bed. 16 done just 104 to go now
The washing machine appears to have broken overnight and there's a full load of whites locked in it so I'll get DH on the job soon.
On the subject of Uggs or look a likes as I, too, wear they are fabulous! So warm & toasty and comfortable. I love them!
ISOM I am in love with that blanket too it's gorgeous. I'd love to make something similar one day.
Have a good day all & I'll be back in later xxx0 -
Good morning everyone,
Maytaurus so sorry to hear you've been in hospital again, please take care of yourself, we NEED you. Hope your family are as well as they can be.
ISOM that blanket is rather delicious isn't it. It would also look good in 'mother of pearl' pastels don't you think?
Shaz hope you're feeling a little less bereft as each day passes.
Jean the sewing lessons sound interesting, keep us posted on how they go. What did you learn from the knitting machine lady?
Pam hope your ok.
Love to everyone, xxxx0 -

OOO new shoes, lucky girlie, yep I agree their prices are certainly reasonable!
Kinsey - knitting machine was socks and bootees - but I haven't as yet got around to completing any, oh perhaps today then.
Just done the figures for the spreadsheets if you click on Mioliere's name LHside of any of Kathy's posts you can pick up the most recent on her blog, just scroll down to the spreadsheet.
It is also available on the link below (well if the linkie works that is)

Off to make a start on some machine socks - oh and search out a pattern for a top for that sweet 16 year old, who got on remarkably well considering it was ME doing the teaching! Will be back later, hope you all have a lovely snuggley day
xx

Right off to get yet more food shopping. Why do boys eat so much?:think:
Back later.x:jWooligans Totals 2010:

TO ALL MUMS OF BOYS - all boys are born with hollow legs, they at first need them filling up with lots and lots and even more food. As they get taller and older, some (but not all) change the food intake to liquids (I will say no more). My DS could eat for the olympic team probably because he has long legs then!
glad the linkie worked- that's a relief.
