Dorm Quilt and Pillowcases

Finished!  A quilt for my granddaughter's college dorm room this fall.  This was a quick easy quilt to make.  She loves it so far.  I plan on mailing it to her this week, she can use it at home if she wants to.

Fortunately my sister was here to help me and give me pointers as I have never made a quilt before.  This one was fun and easy made need to do one for each of my grandkids.

Sherry is planning on leaving Wednesday to go back home.  It has been a visit of a test of endurance for her.  She has spent a lot of time at my house this trip which is unusual but much better than being stuck in the house with our stepmother all day.  I have enjoyed her visit this trip a lot.  We have done a lot of sewing, the quilt and about a dozen pillowcases for grandkids and a niece so far.  

Super Bowl Sunday

Well, it is Super Bowl Sunday and I am watching a movie on the Science Fiction channel.  A hughe asteroid is about to hit and destroy earth.  But we know everyone will be saved!

So I am working on some mittens.  I currently have two pairs on my needles.  One pair is fingerless called "Musica".

 I plan on sending them to my cousin in Washington state who plays a flute with the orchestra in her city.

The second pair are called "Moggles". They are kittens for my grandson's wife. I plan on making a matching pair girl his daughter.  I have several more cat mittens in my queue to make this year.  But I generally run out of mitten mojo late February or early March.  I am also working on a year long mystery scarf.  We get small clues each week and it runs until November.
