Lingering projects

Despite being a foot down and bleary brained, it was good to finish up some lingering projects. The biggest was a quilt I had started quite awhile ago. The top is finished now (with one more border beyond the one pictured), and I have taken it to Julie Boldry to be quilted. She is in the process of opening a new quilt shop in the area named The Scarlet Thread Quilt Company. It is four miles east of Caston High School.

All pictured here except the last border.

My first I finished, however, was some lovely yarn I spun at the Spinning retreat in Ancilla.

a merino/tencel blend, two-ply yarn

Since then, I've finished up a third skein. Now to decide what to do with it!

Thankfully, I was also able to finish a shawl I've had on the needles for quite awhile. It is a gift for a dear friend's daughter. Haruni, and found on Ravelry.

Also, a pair of angora bootees for a sweet young couple with their first baby girl.

And now, I should go read the book I saw at the library... Toodle-oo, campers!
