Way Too Many Projects

I have way too many projects going on.  
I'm in the middle of knitting a birthday present for someone so I can't post that.  
I'm knitting slipper that will be felted.  They don't look like much at this point so there is no reason to post it.  
I have a pair of socks.  Those hang out in my car so I have an emergency project.
I can post the latest pictures of His Eye is on the Sparrow.  
I am nearly done with the body of the piece and will be able to work on the border. 


Katy just went back today after Spring Break.  She has less than two month until graduation.  She is ready to be done but, she will get hit by the graduation depression and how much life will change.

Hope you had a good weekend!
The weather was decent here this weekend:  sunny but on the cool side.
Have a wonderful week.
Keep on Stitching!

Fraught with Mistakes

I am not saying that With His Eye on the Sparrow isn't fraught with mistakes because...oh boy it is!
Last post:
 Today's post:  What a difference eleven days make!  I'm done with the left upper portion.
 I just hope when I get to the border everything sort of lines up.
 Went to the Stitching Bee last weekend and wouldn't you know it, I just don't have enough patterns.  Three more just had to come home with me:  Prairie Schooler Farm Fresh, Notforgotten Farm Sepia Sampler and Stacy Nash True Love Sampler Bag and Pinkeep.
Kendra is at the Nashville Market and I had submitted a wish list before she went.  I haven't finished any of the ones from last years list. 
My vow:  No more big stuff for a while so I can work on some little things.

Taking a class for the next few weeks on how to make felted slipper clogs.  Here is my main color, I have a tan I'm using for around the opening and maybe the sole.  
I love this color!
Probably close to DMC 503.  
That is a never ending source of amusement to my husband, when I look at a color and rattle off the DMC equivalent.  
That's when you know you have been doing this too long.  
Just got home from seeing London Has Fallen.
What a fun flick!  Lots of action!!
The weather here is fabulous today and suppose to be all week.  
Hope you had a good weekend!
Have a great week!
Keep on Stitching
