A Little Knitting

One of my favorite ways to relax in the evenings is to listen to podcasts while I stitch. Next to my stitching chair is a big wooden bowl that is a catch all for small projects.


I don't consider myself a good knitter, but I do enjoy working on small items like scarves and washcloths.

Wintery

Have you ever seen one of those Sunsets while you're driving, and you just have to pull off the road to stare at it or take a picture?


Yeah, you know what I'm talkin about.

Rag Rug

Changing things up a bit, so I started working on this rag rug again. It's referred to as a toothbrush rug because of the type of needle used to stitch with. The needle was made by cutting off the brush section of a toothbrush.


I'm trying to use up some fabrics that are not worthy of using for quilts. I'll show more detail in the next couple of days.

Happy New Year!


We have been getting a lot of snow here in the Midwest, and the temperature has been extremely cold. Hope your New Year is off to a good start.



Maggie loves playing and digging in the snow.
