What are you working on?

I am working madly away at a quilt for my dear hubby. He is quite sad because I've made quilts for every other member of our family except him. I hope I'll have it finished by Christmas. I just have a small amount of hand stitching left and then add the binding. In the back left corner of the photo


are my baskets of knitting and crochet--hats, tablecloth, socks, dishcloths. The two pages of tiny typing on the desk is my to do list. My dear hubby made my quilting box from some scraps of wood many, many, many years ago.

So what are you working on?

  3. I am working on an afghan I started last winter. I did the same pattern last winter but used a variety of colors. All you could see was color and not the stitches. This time I am using one color and the variety of stitches show up much better.
