My evening quilt guild has started doing Buddy Blocks (the process is, after an interview with our assigned partner from the guild, we decide on a block to make for that person... the member can request a theme color range, or even a block design, after two months we exchange blocks and then move on to another exchange partner where the process begins again.) The photo is the first Buddy Block that I've received..........
My next Buddy Block is going to a teenage girl that has joined our evening guild...the blocks will go into a new quilt for her newly decorated room... This exchange I'll have to mail from Minnesota...
My first beret was made as a prototype for possible hats for the preemie nursery... I don't think my beret will ever fit a "real" preemie but my sheep enjoys looking jounty.
Over a week ago I had the pleasure to attending the fiber show called "STITCHES south", which was a yarn, thread, knitting, crochet and other needlearts show that was in town for a weekend. My sock mentor, Sonja, and I attended for a full day. We could have probably spent more we both were suffering from fiber sensory over load. It was an inspiring and educational event for me, there was yarn there from animals I didn't even know was caught for harvesting. I mean who would have thought of Yak, water ox, and buffalo???? no me....
So what wondrous fibers did I purchase???
That's correct........a buffalo baseball cap for my husband and a sheep necklace for me, he is made from a felted bauble...K
The purchases from Krazy Knits...
