Yoga Wrap – the Sweater that Never Ends
This is the progress I have made on the Yoga Wrap Sweater I started quite a while ago.
Those are the arm holes. On the right side I am almost done – it has to be as wide as the left side. Then I will still have to knit the two sleeves.
Remember this is all stockinette stitch. I has become my travel project. I end up only working on it when I am in the car (as a passenger), at the movies or watching a movie at home. After tearing out 15+ rows that were stitched wrong while watching the new Transformers movie – I may not stitch in the movie theater anymore.
All the yarn is purchased – it would be really great if I can finish this before it gets cold.
Wee are Twisted – Strip Twist Quilt
I never really name my quilts, but when I was entering this project into my sewing room on SeamedUP.com I came up with “Wee are Twisted”. Because it is made with the Wee Play collection by American Jane and it is the Strip Twist pattern.
Here is the progress so far:
I really like it – [...]
The Morgan Update

Snicket Socks
Have you ever seen the movie “Lemeny Snicket’s a Series of Unfortunate Events”? This is one of my sons favorite book series. Probably the only books he ever read because he wanted too.
When my sister asked for a pair of socks, I went looking for a pattern and came across the Snicket Socks [...]

Here is sits on my sewing table turned into a lightbox. [...]
Trying to get back on track
Over the last week, I have been reminded on my blog. In one guess, I was “asked” to keep it updated. Not in a mean or negative way – just a gentle reminder that some on my loyal followers use their Kindle to read my blog. Another person mentioned the traffic that my blog gets. [...]

My Janome is Broke Down AGAIN!!
Well, we are at 9 times in the shop and counting. Remember – it has only been 18 months since the first repair.
This past weekend I was stitching away and the dreaded noise happened again. The bobbin case spun and pressed against the top of holder. I stopped as quick as I could. When I [...]

Check out the amazing gift I got from my Mom!
This is the sewing machine I grew up on. It is 33 years old and has only been in the shop one time for repairs. I have always wanted it, but when I got my junker Janome I figured she should find a better home for [...]
Disappearing 9-Patch ~ Quilting is done
I finally finished the quilting on my disappearing 9-patch. I was putting it off because I was down to just the decorative swirly’s on the border. For each one I had to start and stop quilting. They were not connected or continuous.
But I sat down and got into a rhythm and finished [...]
