Hey ...
I forgot to tell you ... I have the top almost done. I need to put on a couple of borders to finish up the top. What do you think we should put on the back? I was thinking of a black or navy and adding in some of the left over material. What do you think?

This is how we keep up with each other and the projects we work on. Her is the one who doesn't pin and quilts her way! The Crafter, who won't crochet, is a painter, a stitcher and has a few more talents up her sleeve. Me is the quilter that pins, irons and measures twice!!!

New year- new goals
Howdy,
So a new year makes me feel like I have a new chance to get stuff done but of course I need to figure out what I want to do. So I propose we each make a list of what we would like to do this year and then see what we actually get done. I'm going to take a day of so to figure it out and then I'll post. You do the same. Maybe I'll actually finish up some stuff?
Also I haven't seen pictures of the quilt you actually managed to give away yet.

Crochet Deadline
Howdy,
So just wondering how the Christmas projects are going. I just finished a baby afghan for one of the ladies at work's first great-niece. I kinof procrastinated and then had to crochet like a crazy lady to get it done for Friday so it could go to it's new home. It's sweet and simple, just like a baby.
