Still searching and cutting................


I thought maybe I should add more light triangles for this quilt so I added a Philip Jacobs floral.




Here are the rest of the triangles that wouldn't fit on the table.  I only have enough triangles cut to make into 48 blocks so far.  That would only make a quilt 36" x 48" so I have a long way to go.



I went though more Philip Jacobs fabric and the group of Lille which Kaffe did the coloration for.  I think these 5 are going to work.



I spent about 3 hours outside yesterday picking the rest of the tomatoes (50 or more) and then cutting up the gangly tomato plants, pulling up cages and putting them in storage.  I was so tired last night that I just spent some time knitting.  I finished this green dishcloth and love how it looks with this Philip Jacobs floral.


Then I started a new denim blue dishcloth and knitted 10 rows on the variegated purple one.  I like more than one in progress and may start another one today.

Today is only supposed to go up to high 40s so I doubt if I will go out to finish up the tomato plant cleanup.  I had 13 plants this year.

  2. Love the lighter florals too, I can't wait to see it all together. You probably want warmer weather, so would you send some of your 40s down this way? :)

  7. Beautiful color work when things are getting browner outside and the daylight gets shorter. Love all the floral fabrics and yarn colors.

  8. Your blossoming florals are beautiful and this one will be such a treat to watch grow. Your fabrics are so awesome.

  10. Love your florals and you thought to sprinkle in some lighter florals for sparkle.
    Oh, I wish my hands would crochet and/or knit but they don't play nicely together in those ways. I am grateful they do most other handcrafts, but I do look longingly at that glorious yarn!

    Hugs!
