This time it was with my friend, Peggy! We had a fun afternoon last week. Peggy does crochet and makes some really nice items...but this was her first attempt at arm knitting! I think it turned out great!!
So that was one day...the next day, Wed., I headed to the Villages with another friend, Marcia to do some shopping and have lunch. Think I mentioned that on my last post....then dinner with Jan and Larry on Thursday, Friday off to library and run other errands...Saturday, Susan and I headed south to an art/textile/sewing exhibition. I did pick up some threads and a really cool little ruler that you use to align your needle for those perfect 1/4 inch seams...haven't tried it yet but I will.
Let's see...Sunday, I think I stayed home! Woo hoo!
Monday, Carol and I took off to do some tooting around...mall, Bed, Bath, Beyond...you get the picture...of course, we also stopped for lunch at Crispers..which was quite good...just had a salad but very tasty.
Today, was a stay home day as well...and I did get some more work finished on my Valentine fiber cards.
I have almost 30 cards to make this year!! This is almost like a Christmas card list! But I enjoy sending them out to family and friends...so I've been trying to work on them at night watching TV. I can get the hearts either beaded or embroidery stitched on two at night (in about 3 hours)...but I still have stab stitching the background, add the address label then use decorative stitching on the edges...I have a long way to go but I''ll get them finished in time! That is if I can stay to home!
Arm knitting and wine.....sounds perfect to me!!!
