Here is the Blanket of Insanity, as of a week ago:
Three squares nearly covers the bed; 5 squares gives a good hanging edge length wise. 4 squares across gives a good hanging edge width wise. This is exciting, because that means that 20 squares, or a variation of 20 squares, will make it perfect. 25 squares is huge! I am currently working on square number 5! I am nearly 25% done! My Phoenix project will be 6 squares for this insanity it 8 weeks. I can do that. I think.
Quote of the week, by DD2, on the way out the door to my sister's baby shower. (
The little darling is scheduled to enter the world on Feb 1, and I can hardly wait.)
"I feel like a Disco Ball!"
Notice the sparkles on the walls and floor from her skirt!
The big item for the shower was this quilt top, constructed by DD1:
It has a couple more borders on it right now, and will have a backing and edging and all that, but wow, am I ever proud of her! Great job, don't you think?
On the sewing front, I've made a pair of pants from the Laura pattern from style arc, and I am wearing them right now. There is fabric on the table for two more, possibly three. A dark grey stretch for a dress pant, a dark grey denim, and a stretch black striped dress pant fabric. I may not get a swap done, but I will have pants that are not all black.
