W.I.P. WEDNESDAY

It's been quite a while since I linked up with a work in progress Wednesday post.  This week seemed like a good time because I started another baby quilt.

I've already made my new grandson 2 quilts, but when I came across this Art Gallery fabric bundle, I just had to buy it.  It's called 'hello bear' and I'm sure my son will love this one  : )



Simple equilateral triangles showcase the prints well



I also have a finish!  These little socks are done and I just love them


I took them out to the garden for a little photo shoot


It was early morning, so I don't think the neighbours saw me. I hope they didn't see me.......: )

STOCKING STUFFERS AND A 4th QUARTER FINISH

Just in time for Christmas, I was given a pattern called 'little wallet' by Valori Wells. I whipped up a few as stocking stuffers for the girls.



They worked up so fast.  I enjoy putting hand made things into the stockings so along with their knitted socks, they will each get one of these


they are just big enough to tuck a little treat card into and perhaps some cash


and, AND I finished this pair of socks that were on my fourth quarter list


I had coffee with a friend the other day and was able to gift them to her.  Apparently she's waiting until Christmas to open them    : )   This was by far the nicest sock yarn I have ever knit with.  It's Madelinetosh and the colour is Dahlia.  I need to get more

ONE OF THESE THINGS............

.............is not like the other, and Christmas is coming fast!  At the beginning of the year, I decided to knit socks for the girls' Christmas stockings.  This is where I am at



I've been knitting every chance I get to sit down, but I am still slow. I need to finish this one


I want all my girlies to have toasty toes this winter  : )




The black and white pair on the right is from my finish along list for quarter 4. Yay! So is the plumb pair, but I haven't got very far

These four quadrants


became this 24" block for the Heal group of do.good stitches


This was a fun block but very time consuming.  That completes my blocks for the four groups I'm in this month.
Now on to some Christmas sewing!!!
