Blogtober Monday the 11th




 This morning I had physical therapy which went really well. The therapist added a couple more exercises for me to include. It never fails also that when I go to Tulsa for an appointment or something, I end up there half the day. Same for today, I left at 9:30 did not get home till 2:30.

While in Tulsa after therapy I went by Whole Foods, picked up some prescriptions at the pharmacy and then on the way home went by Walmart. I needed some white yarn for the Christmas Afghan that I’m crocheting. I thought I had enough of it.  I bought one of those great big value skeins of the acrylic red heart yarn but nope, used it all. 


And I still have the outer edging to do which takes white also. What a pretty edging. Can't wait to work on it.

I rested for a little while when I got home. I was tired, seems like these days I’m still getting tired but it's getting better. Then this afternoon I worked on my mitt that I making for myself. I started the second one. 



Then made dinner and tonights was white beans with pork. Very basic navy beans, onions and a shank of pork or salt pork.

Then I took a look at last weeks "thing to do list" and checked out what I had accomplished and things that I can transfer over to this week.

Here is this weeks Things To Do list  


Transferred over the Hocus-Pocus quilt and I need to put on the details to the  hello kitty mitts I had made.

This week I would also like to warp the loom again for some more mug rugs. My plan is to give them away for Christmas.


 so here is the yarn what I picked out for the next four mug rugs.

Wanted to start cutting out the pieces for the stems on the pumpkins but I’m kind of tired and I think I’ll just write this up and call it a night so this is day 11 of Blogtober 

Till tomorrow

  1. The edging on your afghan is really lovely. I've never seen anything like it.

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section        ...

I have a lot of bird related patterns, especially ones that are chickens This quilt I made last year from a pattern in Quiltmania. Then here are a few more patterns I had and thought about doing.

It came from a shop in Texas,...
