... And More New Projects!

Regarding my knitting, I am trusting the book a little too much... or the book thinks I know more than I know.   About the time I began shaping the heel, I realized I should have been working on 4-5 double-pointed needles.  Oh, well, ripping out and starting over is a good thing!

Regarding the wool pillows I made before Christmas, I am still enthralled with vintage wool fabrics and so made heart-shaped pin cushions using old textile bobbins as a base.  Trimmed with vintage velvet, little red penny rug hearts, with vintage hat and corsage pins! 


To follow up I took a beginning one-day quilt workshop last Saturday through a local quilt guild.  There will be more classes throughout the winter.  I think I'm hooked!
