Please say hello to Charlotte’s Web! (Pattern by Maie Landra)
I like it a lot.
I’m thinking it’s too pretty to leave at home so I will wear it out.
I used Blue Moon Fiber Arts Socks that Rock Lightweight in Stonewash, Peaseblossom, Never on Sunday, Jubilation, & Lenore. More details on my Ravelry project page.

In 11 hours I will be in a class taught by the Yarn Harlot at Sock Summit 2009. I haven’t packed for the slumber party tomorrow night. I have no idea where anything is. I’m going to miss Cori and Matt, but I know it is good to have some away time. But I’m really [...]

I’m halfway through the third block (there are 6 designs total using 6 different fabric pairings). I’m so hooked on quilting!
I also [...]

In the days following Cori’s surgery I have done some more sewing. (She did very well. No more lump, but we still have a long recovery ahead).
The reason I wanted to sew was because of this adorable pillow Emily of MLE Knits made for her baby boy. A year later (to the day!), I finally [...]

I’m over halfway through about 8 projects, both sewing and knitting, so I’m getting the wonderful pleasure of finishing up. Yesterday I completed my first big sewing project – a tote bag. I took the class at the local JoAnn’s (I’m lucky to live near one of the super-stores) and after less than 5 hours [...]
