Online Craft Club Show and Tell #2


Welcome to the second edition of the Online Craft Club Show and Tell. I’d love it if you play along with me. Here’s what you do:

Take a picture of your current project, whatever that happens to be. Or maybe one you recently finished. Or the materials for the one you are about to start. Let’s say materials for a project in whatever state it happens to be in at the time you snap it. On Friday, post the picture and tell us about your project. What you did, or what you are going to do. How much you are enjoying it, or hating it. You know–show and tell.

Just copy & paste the code below the graphic and get crafty with me!

I have had great difficulty deciding what to tell you about this week. Last night, I had fully decided to begin quilting the now pin-basted nine-patch quilt, and then show you what I had accomplished. But then DaBaby refused to take her normal evening nap when the rest of the fam went to football/cheering practice. And not only did she not nap, but she had to sit in my lap, because DaBaby, youngest of eight, does not play well alone. So we listened to podcasts and I stewed over my thwarted sewing.

And then, when the family came home, I threw my Otis into the washer, and then I pinned it out, and it’s drying. I’ll put the buttons on it when it dries (and maybe add another picture :) ) and this sweater that I finished in April will be off the back of my chair–just in time for fall. you will note that I am dispensing with the silly straps and going with buttons, the large one for the visible side and the tiny one you probably can’t see for the not-to-be-seen. For heaven’s sake that collar is fancy-schmancy enough, doncha think?

That is quite the sweater, the collar is the ‘finishing’ touch.

I worked more on the crocheted baby blanket today. Don’t know yet how to show it. We’ll get there.
