I am feeling like my old self again, and have been celebrating that by having a deliciously busy week, which included a 'play-date' with Tineke and a visit to the indoor park with the boys. Klosjes continue to be my constant companions and they really are moving along nicely. Tineke and I even managed to make some together amidst the catching up, planning and giggling.
I have also had some sleepless nights dreaming of new projects... :) Isn't it fun how we start dreaming of our next project just as we are finishing what we are working on? :)
I am missing my charm-hexies, but know I will be more inclined to work on them when the summer heat arrives. In the meantime, I had the joy of meeting Liz, and order a beautiful pattern from her achingly beautiful blog.
ooooh, life is good!
thinking of you, and trying to sneak in some visits a day, looking forward to catching up soon!

Sunday night update: yeay! after finishing the 'partials' in the bowl I now have added an extra 25, making my week's total 45. This added to the 585 I had makes it... 630! Happy dance!!!
Oh oh, even better: I only have 90 more to go!
wish me luck!

ReplyDeleteI think most of us plan and dream about the next projects...that's all part of the fun.
The sun is shinning and even though here in New Zealand we are as a nation having a tough time, we must keep going, paying our taxes, doing the washing, feeding our kids....and sewing.
Glad you're feeling better. Oh my gosh I clicked on the links...gorgeous! Don't you love the rubbery thimble? I have a hot pink one.
ReplyDeletePerseverance is the key to finish those klosjes, and I know you're so good at it. The day coming when you're done and OH WHAT AN ACCOMPLISHMENT ! Hold on, my sweet, you're reaching your goal ;>)
