Barn Raisin'

I have not been able to pull myself away from my Barn Raising squares. I gave my first 10 a bath yesterday and pseudo blocked them.

Here's Barn Raising Quilt 1(aka. the primarily Socks that Rock quilt):

**clockwise from top left--Algae, Lucy, Nodding Violet, Fire on the Mountain, Tres Campy(a lone Hello Yarn square).

Barn Raising Quilt 2(aka. Diva's/communal family leftover quilt):


I am going to TRY and knit on something else as well--I've got socks and things to finish people!

Wow. They look great! I understand what you mean about the squared being addicting. The first one I did seemed to take a really long time for some reason but I'm nearly done with the second one and it didn't seem to take any time at all.

Your post sent me on a quest to Ravelry looking around for this blanket. I wish I knew the pattern! I have to get the book when I get out and about. Where did you pick up your book?

Love your squares! You blanket will be stunning! :)

Not one, but 2 blankets. You are funny (and diva is lucky!) These are going to be fab.

Hooooo Boy, those are great looking squares! I only have my two beauties, and of course I got sidetracked on another project so I've got to get back on it. Can't wait to do our trade!!!

Stashalong--Sign ups end Jan.1

Image
Sign ups have ended. EDIT: Sign ups end January 1 at 5pm Mountain time. Anyone interested in using some of your stash in order to make room for some new spring stuff? Join me in a very informal knitalong. Here are the rules: (1) Must start and try to finish something from your stash yarn(I say "try" to finish because if you pick something huge like an afghan or sweater finishing in three months may not be realistic). (2) You have 3 months and during that time you cannot add to your stash in any way(things ordered before January 1 but not yet delivered do not count--hence the early warning--get it out of your systems, ladies). Of course realistically there is no way to police this, so the honor system is in place. (3) I am beginning on January 1, 2006 and ending March 31, 2006(if there is interest, I'd be glad to start another one after that). (4) Keep me posted on your progress and I will post it once a week--probably Mondays or Tuesdays. I've never attempted to s...

I still have delusions of grandeur that I will find time to get back to the things I love to do unfortunately for the last few years it has been a lot of HAVE to do versus WANT to do.
