Here and Elsewhere

Sorry for the sudden radio silence! I’ve been working on some super secret knitting projects (still can’t post photos of them, or else I’ll spoil the surprise!). This has taken over my crafty time, so Confidence Quilt #2 is no further along than when you last saw it.

In other news -

I’ve also been spending some time watching a mama bird that has taken up residence in our garage. Isn’t she something?

I’ve been watching the 60 Blocks of Summer group on Flickr. This is a group of quilters who are challenging themselves to create 60 quilt blocks by the end of summer. I’m nowhere near ready for that type of commitment, but I’m amazingly inspired and amazed by what these folks are creating. If you’re looking for a quilting challenge, I think there’s still time to join the fun!

I’ve become obsessed with the Bayview Street cardigan pattern from Elinor at Exercise Before Knitting. I’ve been doing so much gift knitting lately, I’m excited to start a new “for me” project, and this looks fantastic.

I’ve updated my “About” page and have re-done the site theme again. I think I’m happy with it now. But if anything is wonky, just let me know!

And because I can’t post without a photo. Happy Wednesday!

Ruby says “Happy Wednesday” too!
