We traveled through Beverly, Rockport, Gloucester, Essex, Ipswich and other beautiful coastal towns, stopped for lunch at The Lobster Pool and watched a lobster boat pick up his catch.
OK, now I'm feeling calm and have had my ocean fix. Life is good.
Let's catch up on what I've been doing quilt wise.
I haven't posted a shot of the frog quilt. I looked through my photos and didn't have one of the completed quilt, but here it is about to be basted.
I don't know why I have a problem taking a picture of completed quilts.
I did, however, take a picture of the kitten I knitted. Say hello to Knitten, my official motorcycle mascot.
She rides in my tank bag and watches the view. She got a little dirty on the trip to TN, but she had a good time and is now sporting a new pink bow.
I've been working on completing the hand quilting on a charity quilt for the guild. It was donated by a member who was cleaning out her stash before she moved out west. She must have started the hand quilting and decided not to finish, so I volunteered. It't going well, and I'm nearing completion, but am anxious to get to some of my own projects.
And then there is this hexie project that I am doing by machine. The black and patterned pieces were a UFO from my husband's grandmother. I don't really like the project, but it was a mindless sewing task to pick up. I am trying hard not to have a lot of UFOs or projects going at once, so I will try to finish this before going on to another machine project.
That being said, I made this little wallet one afternoon to give me something more fun to sew by machine than the hexies. It's done, so not a UFO.
And that brings me up to date on crafty projects.
