March QBOTM



Even before the swap has started, I finished the quilt blocks for the March QBOTM. Very easy, although the block I made for myself(not pictured) is in mirror. Oops! The grey squares are really a very light blue print. Pattern- Patience Corners, color theme- Aquamarine

Doll Group Challenge

The Cloth Doll Making Yahoo group is having a new challenge. This one is split between making a dress form and a dress to go on it. I usually will only join challenges and such if I have instant inspiration and I had to skip the last two because nothing popped into my head. An idea did indeed pop this time! Of course, I can't show any progress pics or anything until it is over, but I will say the dress form is looking really good! I wish I had a figure this nice! LOL!

February QBOTM & Sister Socks



The quilt blocks for the February QBOTM swap are done. The birthstone theme this month is Amethyst. A very simple pattern, but I finally got to use my favorite swirly purple fabric, a batik and two other simple cottons. Pattern- Double Z Block



And the socks are FINALLY finished! I got the small ball I needed in my January Sock Club shipment from Catherine at Knitting Notions. She's awesome! Pattern- Muscari by Suzi Anvin, Knitting Notions Classis Merino Sock yarn in Misty Mountain Hop colorway.
