I really dislike hiding my ends when I finish a crochet project. 

June to do list

I started this blog to motivate me. To finish things. Not going so well ;)


Here is what I hope to accomplish this month.

• Finish afghan for my UMW secret pal
• Finish quilt for baby K ( my niece has it now, she is quilting it for me)
• make binding for quilt so its ready to go when I get it back
• bind it
• Finish flannel quilt top and get it to Kathryn to quilt.
• Order a flannel sheet for backing for flannel quilt (had to add this back in, I ordered one, didn't like it...might piece a back now, not sure)
• Cut squares for Emma's quilt
• Continue to work on afghan using up some leftover yarn
• Wash and dry T shirts for Aaron's CC quilt
• Cut T shirts and iron on interfacing
• lose 5#

Long time, no sew.

Not much sewing going on at my house.
Aaron is only home for 2 more days. Its been so nice having him home for these two weeks. 
His piles of stuff, not so much. 
I wonder how he fit all of it in his dorm room????


I did take a pile of scraps to work yesterday.
I cut them into 2-1/2 inch strips or 5 inch charm squares. 
They will go into my someday I will make something out of this stuff pile

I made some coasters for Aaron. Since I bought him some end tables (and a recliner and a bed), he can keep them nice.  I also made some for Allison, but hers are still upstairs and I am too lazy to get them.  I just used some charm squares.

One more pic of my cum laude  graduate!
The sash with the Norwegian flag is because he studied in Norway for a semester. This is new at the college, started by Aaron! 

Aaron

No sewing for me this weekend. 


Aaron graduated from Luther College. He has a double major in Computer Science and Scandinavian Studies with a minor in International Studies.  He starts his new job on June 4, so will be moving to Eau Claire in a few weeks.
We are so proud of him.!

Look what was hiding in the grass just inches from the driveway. 
How amazing!
Isn't he (or she?) awesome?
Even more amazing -  we had 15 loads of gravel delivered today. And he didn't get run over.
