Start of the Benjamin Biggs quilt

Today I officially started work on the Benjamin Biggs quilt. I'm also giving back basting it's first try. I liked the ease of getting ready and the basting onto the background feels stable. Not sure if the points and curves are as good as using the freezer paper method. But it is good to try new things. My two good friends are a,so working on same quilt. It's a block of month from sentimental stitches and dear jane

An obsession or diversion?

I usually work on projects really slow. But I made the brown infinity scarf and I got hooked. So I went shopping in my yarn stash and made two more cowls. It's a drop stitch pattern and the first time knitting in a circle. I casted on much tighter than off, but I'm still learning and it looks nice on.





This wool one is my favorite.


- Again Gracie is helping me. I'm itching to go buy more yarn. But I also need to get back to my first love of quilting.
