AUGUST 1st... oh boy!





Charity sew day--well, this was most fun and lots attended-- and we played and played---had a storm, short general meeting and back to playing! The quilts we are making are for a safe house and an assisted services program...
oh and we had brown bag lunch and lots of snacks...people brought in 6 completed quilts and I paln on having another sew day towards the end of August in hopes of completing more quilts...got lots of tops done and i brought 5 home to tie and or bind....

Here is the doily that I conducted a crochet a long of it is my friend's newest design.....
we are going camping next week and I am going to take along things to play with--cq-ing and crochet thread and hook and pencil and pad so i can get to working on an idea I have for a doily!

it is humid and warm--1/2 inch rain yesterday and less than normal computer time for me but I am getting some cq-ing done on RR's and swaps, etc,etc.....and I was led to a Thimbleberry list out of England! I am having fun there already :o) Participating in a lottery draw using paper pieced method--my first attempt ouside of a classroom...made one block and it cam out great--attempted the second and messed that all up so have given up for the day--best to put aside and return to it tomorrow...toodles! *~*CAROLE*~*
