Well besides reading - Hey! I do other things besides reading!
I have been a pretty busy girl.
The hubby's birthday was early Nov. I started making this quilt for him about 6 months ago.
We weeded out his closet and got rid of a LOT of his shirts. Little did he know I kept all the shirts and cut them all up into squares to make a quilt.
He loved it. It now sits on his bed in his apt. in PA.
I think I counted over 100 pins in the pre-sew stage!
I had a real hard time keeping Martina off it! I didn't want her to get stuck in all the pins. She finally got the hint and just sat on the side.

The back - I used a heavy flannel. Its really soft!
I call it "The Red-neck Quilt"!
And here is my latest knitting -
Here are some socks I knitted for myself. I just love making these little "peds", they knit up so fast and fit so nice. This is some great yarn I got in TN. It is Aslan Trends Natural Luxury yarns, Santa Fe Kettle hand dyed collection, it is a wool blend.
Here are some hats I knit for the church. I will probably try to do about 6 of them.
And here are some little bits and pieces of stuff I am working on. Don't ask what they are or who they are for! They might just be a Christmas gift.
