What I have been up to!!!!

 Hello All

This is my first entry with the new blogger layout. So I am not counting on this being easy.

First I have the Italian doily I have been working on. I could not believe I had to have Karey send me more of her beautiful HDT. I have gone through 2 1/2 skeins of ``Sunset on .Seneca lake`` in size 20. But at last it is done!!! It measures 16`` cross! This is the largest doily I have done. And I understand that she does not have any more of this colour in stock. Boy was I lucky to get enough to finish this piece.

 
And while I was waiting for the extra thread to arrive..... I did the same pattern but this time in a lovely yellow from DMC Cebelia size 30. This doily turned out to be about 14`` wide. I am thinking of putting it away for my mom for her next birthday!!


We have been busy with the gardens and yard work lately. And I am still looking for work but there is not much out there.

Well I must go. I have to clean up my craft room and then decided what my next project will be.

Take care and I`ll tat you to later,
Kelly
