But that's okay with me. I do need to be making thread catcher for next month and will do. <br />
<br />
I did a KAL (kit along) and am very happy with how it came out. I was suppose to be for two different ones but didn't get completed in time. The penguin always wants to be my model so why not. <br />

Not a big deal but his birthday is January 1st. I gave it to him on his birthday still on the needles. He loved it! He waned it to be a gentleman's scarf not one to wrap around his neck. I would work on it and think it's long enough. Take it to him for a fitting and he'd ask for another inch or so. Of course I'm make it more like four or so inches more. Finally last night he deemed it perfect. I took it home and bound it off and waiting to bring it to him. <br />

It was located at Zephyr Point. I got very lucky and had a view of Lake Tahoe while I was sewing. This was my view taken from the window. I started a new project, a log cabin. I've been collecting fabric for this for a long long time. I forgot to actually take a picture of the fabric before cutting it up for this and several others I want to do. I was able to complete four blocks with another 21 in various stages. I am not sure how big I am going to make it or the lay out. <br />

I found eight more I thought will look good in this quilt. So I got a quarter of a yard each. I need to add it into my stash report even though I'm going to take it right out. I'm trying to decided how to even count all this fabric. I pulled 9.5 yards out of my stash but some will be going back as I do not need it all. I think I'm going to count all the red out then add back in once I'm completed. I have a friend in Oregon who loves to quilt. I ask if she would like to accept a mission of looking for red fabric. Of course she jumped at it. So I'll have one more picture of fabric. I have started cutting out and do a little bit each day.<br />

Mine is my friend and quilting buddy Kerstin. Yesterday at mini group, she was talking about the <a href="http://sewcalgal.blogspot.com/p/redwhilte-quilt-challenge.html" target="_blank">red and white challenge</a> that she had read about. I've have always talked about doing a red and white quilt. I've been collecting red fabric and know the pattern I want to use. The pattern does not have a name except I call it Green Quilt Number 6 as it was the sixth green quilt Kerstin made. I too made one and it's called Green Quilt Number 6 even though it's my first green quilt. I made one in pinks and it's called Green Quilt Number 6 in Pink. We ended up on the phone later and we talked about the challenge. I knew I had white squares cut out I was planning on using. To make sure I'd have enough, she figured out how many I'd need to make it queen size. I had to only cut about 25 more and I'd had enough. Total squares are 570 give or take a few. I then pulled red fabric and have 20 different fabrics. There is a total of 9.5 yard. Might need to trade with my enable to get more variety. This is a picture of the fabric prewashed. I have learned to wash fabric.<br />

Not a lot done but progress has been made. I'm making a game plan so I can get it done. Kerstin, my friend and fellow quilter has me excited to do this years red and white challenge. I think I'll just called her an enabler. But I digress. So this is a picture of this weeks progress<br />

We are making a top down sweater. The class is done in two sessions two weeks a part. This is what I've done so far. I even used stash yarn I had purchased for a different sweater. When I'm ready for that sweater, I'll get more yarn. I've been so happy with what I've gotten done so far. We have homework so best to go back to work. It's the same yarn I think it was the flash that made it look different.<br />

It's about half done now. For some reason I seem to having more yarn in than I'm knitting. My newest is from Fibernympy. It's a special order called Soft Kitty. Any Big Bang Theory fans will know the story and song. <br />

Someone was selling a skein of Wollmeise at knit night. It's in lovely jewel tones and I just couldn't not buy it. Not sure what I'm going to make with it but it sure is pretty. I did trade yarn with someone on Raverly. I sent her 7 skeins so I'm counting it as out. When I get my trade I'll them back in. They are different number of skeins so that's why I am counting them.<br />

First Design Wall Monday and I have something to post. I'm going to get this done. Turns out I need to cut 2 more colors. It's from the class I took a while ago. The pattern is Now You See It... Now You Don't by Linda Ballard. It's done in fall colors. The ones looking black are really a dark green.<br />

Not much to show for the long absent. I finished a scarf and shrug for my sister for Christmas. Pillowcases for my mini group friends also for Christmas. Did I think to take pictures? NOOOOOOO Oh well life will go on. I have been plugging along on my Dad's afghan. It's officially late as his birthday was the on the 1st. I gave him other goodies and told him about his new afghan. It's close to half done. <br />
<br />
I stopped keeping track of my stash busting around mid July. No idea why I stopped but I did. Need to be better about that this year. I am making smaller quilting goals this year and maybe I can get them done. <br />

It's the top for a baby blanket for a friend who is becoming a Grandfather after the first of the year. I figured the baby needs a quilt when it visit's Grandpa.

I have done a bit of sew but not much. I decided to stretch my knitting skills and go to campy this year. I am pleased with my first project and look forward to starting my next one on July 1. This pattern is called Hitchhiker. The requirements are as follows.<br />
<br />
Project
One: needs to be knit or crocheted between 6/1 and 6/30 (with a photo
of the completed project uploaded to our Project One Photo Gallery by
7/1). The Challenge for Project One – A one-skein project, using a
fingering or laceweight yarn that you have not used before. Your project
must use at least 375 yards of the skein.<br />

Kinda a nice change if I must say so myself. I seem to be taking a break from quilting this year. Only turned my machine on twice so far. However, I have been knitting some. Working on a pair of socks and a sweater, The picture is of the sweater. The pattern is free on Ravelry called <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/shalom-cardigan" target="_blank">Shalom Cardigan</a> This is actually a picture from the first attempt I tried. I was on row 33 when I found I goofed on my M1's so in trying to tink ( knit backwards) I ripped it all out and starting yet again. So far so good and happier with the project. My name of Ravelry is Kamalaleah. <br />

It doesn't matter if they are quilting, stitching or knitting, they need to be done. So I've made a list of all my different UFO's and plan to tackle them one project at a time. Most people would not think there is a lot of them but to me there are. This is just the list of UFO's. To me, I will not allow myself to start a new quilting project until two on my list is completed it and to me that is the top is completed as at this point I do not quilt my own quilts. Socks will be any on going project as they are good to take to mini group and I have enough sock yarn to make 10 more pair.<br />

As it's a gift it felt good to get done. The only other thing to get done for Christmas is a scarf and need to getting working on it. I feel ahead of the curve of gifts to make. Since I have some UFO's that need to be finished, I decided that I need to finish them before I would allow myself to start something new. My goal was to start in January but I'm jumping the gun and pulled out a mystery Block of the Month from 2011. I did it with four other friends and we were suppose to work on it together. As they keep stalling I called and said we need to get this done. I finally said I'm going to get my done and when they decided to work on theirs I'll help. They were okay with that. Well last night the blocks were put on the design wall and once I played with them I enough to make a way I was pleased with. I added the setting triangles and started sewing the rows. I found it interesting that they had you cut the setting triangles big but didn't tell you. As the store is out of business there is no one to call and ask.
