Knitting: Selbudeath Socks


Just finished my pair of blue and navy selbudeath socks.  Each sock takes 2 balls of yarn because of all the yarn overs.  I found the pattern on ravelry.  I had to modify them a little because when my daughter tried it on, she couldn't get them over her ankle.  They look huge on the table but they are very shapely and pretty when worn.  I'm making another pair right now in black and pink.  I have one sock made and I ran out of black and now I have black yarn again, so I'm off to make the second sock.

Quilt: Monster Quilt


Haven't posted in a while because I've been working on this.  This is the "Little Monster" quilt from Don't Look Now! The circles are trupuntoed (sp?).  I'm working on a second one.  Just finished pinning it and it's now all ready to quilt.  This one is a gift and the next one is for my youngest.  The monsters all turned out really cute.  I did a simple stipple quilting all over.  It's 82" x 61" and the back in a red and white poka dot.
