Ms Grundy again

I am working on Bonnie Hunter's mystery - part one is done, part 2is more than half done, and part three is started.

23 more

I wanted to try Bonnie Hunter's free pattern, Star Struck. So I made this with scraps from our soldiers' quilts

Someone donated thousands of pre-cut 2 1/2 inch squares of dotted Swiss to our library quilt group. We continue to make quilts for the Children's Advocacy Center. The other yellows are left over from my daughter's Texas quilt - which includes a paper-pieced yellow rose. They are much brighter than this - somehow the camera washes them out. A few squares are left from my Bonnie Hunter mystery Celtic Solstice (which I still have to finish the border for)

I made these pinwheels about 15-20 years ago, but never had enough to do anything with them. I finally decided I would just add borders until it was large enough for a baby quilt for my newest grandson. He's received it, so I can post here. One of the fabrics is leftover from when I made my son, his Dad, an all-blue quilt for his bunk bed.

16 hats for Winter Warmies for Fiber Folks of SW Missouri This is my second batch - the first was 17 assorted - some my daughter had crocheted, and the rest I knit.

My quilting group is making small quilts for the Children's Advocacy center.  The lilac, red white and blue, pink, and yellow dotted swiss - precut in 2 1/4 inch squares -were donated to our group. I still have four shoeboxes full.      

Tour de Sock Stage 2  - I Remembered great pattern - but 11 pages !! color-coded charts!

I read Judy Laquidera's blog all the time. She's a knitting fiend. She convinced me to join Tour de Sock this year. What was I thinking!?! Some people have finished two socks in just hours - less than a day! I have knit on this for a long time. I was quite confused when I started the gusset decreases, which ask you to follow 3 different charts while AT THE SAME TIME, and not on the charts, decreasing the gusset. Oh, well, they will be pretty - if I ever finish them. Note: I DID finish them, love them! Twists and Turns by Adrienne Fong http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/twists--turns-3

Made two of these for friends - still haven't mailed one of them - need to make one for me to keep!

I hope to make more - but not from this pattern! It is too low-cut, and way too big - I had to take it up from the shoulders as well as on the sides. What I want is the fit from my regular tee shirt pattern, but with bust darts... Back to the drawing board ...
