Voting for my quilt, and prayer shawl progress

Voting for my quilt

Thank you so much to those of you who have been voting for my quilt!  Voting continues until mid September and you CAN vote daily.  Thanks again!

Currently, I'm finishing up on a near duplicate of the table mat I entered into the contest so that I can present it to my former neighbor who recently moved.

Tonight is the last bi-monthly gathering of our prayer shawl ministry and I'm taking along my newest one which is not too large yet.  The other one is getting so heavy that I've had to limit my time working on it.  I'm sure you knitters will understand!


I'm planning to finish these two shawls, then do at least 1-2 more over the summer so that I will have 4 finished ones to donate when we meet again in October.


Happy knitting!

Quick update.......

Thank those of you who voted for my quilt in the McCall's quilt contest!  There are two more challenge levels, of which I as of yet have no information, but this contest goes in into September, so I'm being patient.

I continue to work on shawls for the prayer shawl ministry, enjoying every moment that I'm able to squeeze in.  Will take pictures when projects are complete.

The rhododendron in our yard has for a while, looked sickly.  Every year, the flowers have been smaller and we say that we really must replace the plant.  This year, we decided to leave it there for a while as its beautiful!

Have a great day!
