good afternoon! hopefully you are enjoying this last little bit of above zero weather until it turns tundra-esque.
our chunky thread by Lori Holt arrived yesterday, so i set to work on getting the display up and everything marked. then last night after the last episode of the Ted Bundy Tapes i set to work on crocheting up a granny square.
i haven’t crocheted in i bet 5 years…so i pulled up lori holt’s video and i pulled up some other videos and once i got started it didn’t take long to do a couple rounds.
i’m planning on a granny square afghan eventually but for now i’m going to make a little pincushion and maybe a pillow or 2 down the road.
we’ve got the basic grey, white, and brown bigger skeins and then sampler packs 1, 2, and 3 and 4 is on order. we’ll be filling in with more colors as we get more projects done.
i love her 100% cute crochet hooks…they are definitely 100% cute and come in a pack of 3.
i’ve listed all the Lori Holt goodies…here is link…crochet...if you’d like to get started.
also…
- garden variety quilt has been pieced…just need to get it quilted, bound and washed.
- pictures have been taken of column 1 of the Block Anthology…i’ll have that post live next week along with a link to Column 1 block kits.
- FQ bundles of Hickory Road are arriving next week…be on the lookout for Jo Morton’s newest collection…can’t wait to add it to my Mrs. Billings quilt.
have a wonderful weekend…stay warm and travel safely!
