Catching Up on Life...

Howdy! I have not been a very good blogger in the last couple of months.  Less the excuses go on and on and one, let it suffice to say I shall try to be better.

I finished a few coasters for a swap in Itsy Bitsy, and plan on doing a few more and forwarding them along to Brenda.  I ran short of time due to the visitors and only made four. This is a pattern on the Coats and Clark web site and is really easy. Here is the link to Ravelry which will take you there. I used Cotton-Ease as I am so tired of colors fading into one another in plain cotton.  I know that soaking itmes in distilled vinegar helps, but it doesn't stop it.


It feels good to finally be getting more of my obligations finished - better late than never! I am going to start on some squares for Bev (hoping she still needs them - might have to send the whole afghan to make up for my tardiness!) and once those are finished I will then get back to my Caribbean swap and the Juliet swap. THEN I can relax and make pretties for my doll baby! ;o)

Of course, we do have company comping this weekend, so that will slow me down a bit!

  1. Don't you dare worry about squares for me. You work on your others. I haven't had time to do any others either and it just seems too hot right now to work on afghans.

    Hugs to my BFF!
