What I've been working on
Jun. 11th, 2016 01:12 pmI took some quick pictures of my current projects. Two baby quilts (one is now tied) and my 1864 shawl.


Today I want to get the second quilt tied and get started on the binding. Unfortunate moment yesterday when I realized that the quilt batting I had was JUST BARELY wide enough for the quilt. And that was the quilt with more piecing, so I am not entirely certain that the batting with be quite wide enough for the pinwheel quilt. It might get cut down a little bit round the edges.
The shawl is barely fitting onto the needles anymore, so I'm also picking up a circular needle today. I've decided that once I finish my shawl, my next project is going to be a pair of mitts, using
quincy134's Taylor mitts pattern. I've never made anything so complex before, but I think I'm going to follow
atherleisure's lead and do garter stitch edges and leave off the point to make it a bit simpler.
