Thanks to Vicki, I had another elephant so when I went to the novelty scrap bin today … this print jumped out at me and I quickly sewed up a little quilt top. Isn’t this elephant perfect for it?!?!
I’ll be heading back to Va in about 5 and a half weeks and I’ll need some Little quilts to work on so that’s one of my goals.
Working on group quilts is another goal … this was one that was sent to me by Barb in AZ… she sent that last border with the top and I got it sewn on today.
As I also mentioned … I will also focus on my knitting and crochet. I’ve had so much positive feedback from my chemo hat donations that I know I need to keep knitting and donating them… so another hat was started today.
I’m finding that the Heartland yarn is my favorite for these hats. It works up so soft!
After my time downstairs in the sewing room Keith took me on a date… a little hard cider and some music.
What gorgeous purple yarn! And such a cute elephant to go with the elephant print.
That top under the needle reminded me of “Crazy By Design”‘s quilt top “Groovy Guitars” (https://cathyscrazybydesign.blogspot.com/2018/08/groovy-guitars-finished-at-last.html). Have you ‘met’?
I can only hope the temperatures were high enough that those singers were comfortable in their hot pants and leather boots!
Carolyn (showing my age with that “hot pants” comment)
In order I hope.
The elephant quilt is adorable.
A purple hat. Oh my. I might love it!
Going back to VA. A lot to look forward to and a lot to prepare. You will love it.
Date night, time with Keith, music and hard cider. Perfection.
Sounds like a great day. I think your current mission may have changed. The hats are a hit and so needed.
I thought that was a koala, I didn’t see a long trunk. It sure is cute though. I would think your knitted hats would be very appreciated by the patients and you are a fast and excellent knitter.
Love seeing you with so much energy! I have that purple Heartland as well- great minds! It truly is so soft and I use it for hats or baby sweaters. Cute elephant and quilt!
You are so creative. I appreciate seeing what you do. Thanks.
Awww, the elephant loves his new quilt!
