Moving On


The holidays are over, so at long last, it is time to get back on target and to get back to work -- note that the cats are following my lead. Not that I wasn’t busy during the holiday season — between house cleaning, decorating, sales and making Christmas gifts I had plenty to do.

I made quite a few of these little ornament/key chain fob/decorative tidbit thingies. I love playing with colour and pattern.

The two sides of these doodahs are never identical because that would be no darned fun.


I also finished a few potholders and the lap quilt/wall quilt that was my Christmas present to my father. These photos are thanks to him as I simply got black on black with my camera.

This is the quilt back.


















I also knit sox for presents and have begun a pair for myself. Mine are a rather odd mixture of chartreuse and a few other colours, but the ones I knit as a present were a very respectable rosy rust and grey.


Anyhow aside from the sox I still need to finish for myself, it is now time to move on to the new year's projects.
