This is my first FO of the year, I made a baby quilt! This is my first quilt ever so I'm pretty happy with it, even though there were some mistakes here and there. You can probably tell from the photo that the triangles or flying geese don't exactly line up. The baby is already born and has been around for almost a month now so I wanted to get it done more than to get it done correctly. So with time being an issue, I did not try hand quilting either. The photos are a little dark because we've been having overcast day after overcast day around here but it's a really sweet color combination.
The back has Curious George on it, my BF's favorite cartoon character and his one request of the quilt's details.
And I'm also knitting the last part of the lacy blouse (from Rowan Romantic Style) that I started last summer, the button band. The 12 row repeat is way too complicated for me to memorize so this is undergoing very slow progress. Hopefully I'll be done with it before too long, I really want to start knitting a cold weather sweater and finish it before it gets warm again.
And finally, I started playing with my Ravelry account, it is really cool. I used to have a spread sheet with all of my stash and future projects listed on it, but lost it when my hard drive died a year or so ago. I'd like to organize everything again when I get a good long day off and enter it all into Ravelry, it's such a fantastic idea.
