I could not wait to use this one,one ball knitted up for Raglanjacket started at the top,a KAL from the Knitting Delight Group I belong to.

This will be the next one to be used.X-mas gift Gloves and scarf for my MOM.

Red Riding Hood

Darlene had used this wonderful printed image in muted colors.

Close up of my basket with checkert tablecloth.

I just loved this theme block and the owner Darlene requested nothing modern, more a little antique, so I placed some lace,with beading and embroidered the silk ribbon basket on top of a seam that was frayed..The woodland creatures needed to be on this block so the owl and rabbit charm got their spot on this lovely block.

Autumn RR

I  have always enjoyed Fall, so here is another RR from the traditional blocks I have signed up for.

Roses,Roses,Roses

This will be the focal point of my quilt.

My dear husband is my hand model and he did very well for his first time,thank you honey .

No it is not snowing but I have started to knit  my Christmas gifts for this year.So here is the first one done.Gloves ,yes this was my first pair and I will have to make more and change a few things that I did  not like about the pattern.They do fit well and it was something different to work on.

Candji`s DYB Tone on Tone Block

One of my favorites is the Tone on Tone Blocks. I made mine cream on cream and so did Candji. It was a easy choice on what to do. First I added a crochet Napkin ring that was made by my friend Dorise's grandma in Germany. On top of it I placed a little round Tenariffa lace .A very plain seam treatment and a whole lot of flowers and beads. I do like the way it came together and I hope that Candji likes it too.
