I LOVE these! Your paintings are great too. What do you do with them? I used to paint watercolours, but my biggest problem was what to do with them. They weren't really saleable, and I haven't got a lot of wall space. They're in a big portfolio case behind my craft desk. They haven't been touched for years. Congratulations to sueg too. What a little cutie.

What a little cutie. . Thank you. I am hoping to sell at least some of my paintings. DH says just enough to get the price of materials back and he would be happy. I will be part of our local Farmers Market this summer and they have said art does pretty good in our area. I will also give some to close friends and family if they would express interest in a particular piece. Right now I am waiting for it to warm up enough to open a window or two so I can seal them.

My knitting so far, I find it really hard to get a good pic of it on the circular needles, they just won't behave!
and this is the section that gave me so much trouble! I love the colour The little kitty progress keeper came with the yarn.

It's beautiful lainey. I do like the green with the grey, and that green yarn is so pretty. I can see how you got bogged down with the pattern though - it looks complicated.

Another hat! I was trying some colorwork and it didn’t work, but the diagonal stripes are a happy accident.

I’m uploading what I’ve just finished today, which is the first of the 3 blankets , and if I hear the terms Unicorn Blanket again this century it will be too soon! It’s very difficult to photo without a child so I’m attaching a photo from the pattern. The pink one is finished. The purple and cream ones need the features adding.

My granddaughter arrived on Saturday, and my knitting mojo is back! I've been out shopping this morning, and now have 3 little cardigan projects ready to go. Her name is Sophia, and she is just wonderful! Aw She's beautiful. I think she's thinking "Whoa, what just happened?"

Finally, something to share! I just finished up 13 kennel quilts and put them out for the mailman. These are going to the Humane Society of Nebraska in Omaha. They are assisting with animals affected by the flooding in Nebraska. Hopefully these will make some little cat or dog comfortable. Now to move to cutting out a baby quilt.

She had a rather rapid and traumatic entry into the world outside, and this photo was taken about an hour later!

I think I am keeping, no I know I am keeping one of the circle ones and 3-4 snaps. I love that I can change it up a bit. I wore one to school today with a brighter purple/pink snap and the kids loved it. Many little girls said it was very pretty.
