I have started this new thread to replace the old one which was just too full.

Here is something I'm working on.



I'm using fabric from the fabric swaps.

I already had the blocks made; they were my leaders and enders of last year. It was fun putting it together, kind of like a puzzle, especially since had t do it a quarter at a time.

Beautiful shawl. I've heard of nalbinding but not really familiar with it. Isn't it like doing macrame with a needle?

While dealing with my grief I turned to a couple of crafts I love. One, knitting Two, quilting. I finished my Wild West Shawl and now have it on the blocking pads.





I'm still working on the quilt (also a buffalo theme).

I am also learning a new craft, a very old craft (nalbinding) going to start my first hat later today.

Thanks, Denise! I don't really feel old, but so many people that are my age are dying. I have no intention of kicking the bucket any time soon! I agree that you are only as old as you think you are! I am the matriarch of our family now. However my Grandkids have trouble keeping up with me when we go shopping! So, I'm doing pretty well!

Debbie and Nancy,
I can't believe ya'll think you are old. My daddy was 92, his brother 96 and his sisters were in their 90s. One was 101. So you still have lots to do yet. Your only as old as you think you are!!

My wonderful dinosaur bag from Calamity Ware had developed an area that needed mending. The place was right where my hip rubbed against the bag and it had worn down to the batting. I have just used some visible mending techniques to repair it.



It looks pretty good.

It sounds like you all have a great system going for your UFOs. Now I really need to figure one out for me.

Michele, I am trying to become more like you! Having so many projects is very difficult. I can work on several things at once, but these projects that are sneaking out of boxes as I clean are too hard to deal with sometimes. I know that once the bin is empty, I will be much more at ease.

Great systems and projects everyone. I am weird, if I start something I finish it before starting something new. haha just the way I am. I do have plans for a couple of projects that I don't have time to start yet. Winter I have more time to make things.
Good luck on finishing all your projects!
