Just off my needles, this set, which is headed for the Christmas box...
The picture shows the colour as being blue, but it's actually black. Same pattern as I used before and I believe the yarns are Canadiana (labels are long gone).
- There are a number of ideas HERE for uses for scrap yarn.
- There's an excellent article HERE that might help you when adding borders to a quilt.
- Of course THIS would catch my eye!
- There are some great ideas HERE that you might find of interest.
- If you make fabric postcards (or would like to), perhaps the ideas HERE for finishing would be useful to know.
Today the quote is from Thomas Paine..."A body of men holding themselves accountable to nobody ought not to be trusted by anybody"
Love the matching cuffs and hat set--so neat--nice work hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteBoth are easy patterns to do. The hardest part was changing colours.
DeleteThomas Paine was a great thinker and writer. So many true statements to think about, especially now.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was a good quote and now will have to search out more by him.
DeleteSherryofcreateology: Your Hat and Mittens are perfect for Winter Weather. MA Dear I do not know how you are finding so many appropriate quotes for our times we are living in. Blessings Dear…
ReplyDeleteFunny how those sorts of quotes are popping up all over these day so not hard to find them.
DeleteHello MA: You have been busy, these are wonderful gloves and hat.

Mittens and hats never come amiss when it comes to the grandies so I'll know they'll get used.
DeleteI went to all the links, a lot that I liked aren't available now, you wouldn't know unless you clicked on each one tho... thanks for the links and finding them, it was fun especially to see all the sewing boxes! I want to make the jeans bag now.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the quote, and woe is me that my country can't seem to balance the destruction of our values
Hmmm - I guess the links I checked were fine and you hit upon the ones that weren't...so sorry! Serves me right for not checking all of them.
DeleteAny time I come across something involving recycling denim I generally look into it, so glad you like the bag idea.
Nice cozy knitting :) I've just started another pair of socks - one of these days I might remember to cast on for mittens instead!
ReplyDeleteI have a pair of socks on the needles too and pick them up when the whim strikes me. I pretty much always have a pair on the go.
DeleteI LOVE the colors in your latest hat and mittens. =)
ReplyDeleteThis set is actually purple and black in real life. Don't know why they didn't photograph well.
DeleteNow THOSE are really my kind of colours, so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIt's actually black and purple in real life but for some reason the camera didn't pick up the true colours.
