Sherone, I've been known to do that too...I started my first lapghan in eighth or ninth grade and didn't finish it until I was 25! (Mind, I'd finished a few full-sized ones in the meantime.)
Everyone's so busy lately! Today I'm learning the ins and outs of my new iPad. As soon as I figure out how to upload pictures from it (I click on the upload button and nada), I will take pictures of my recent projects.
A hook, a book, and a good cup of coffee.... |

I'm making a Christening gown for my nieces new daughter. I am still working on the bonnet and slip. I am posting a pic here instead of on my blog as I don't want her to see it before the shower on Sat. The second picture shows more of the detail of the embroidery and insertion lace design.
Blessings, Sheri

wow sheri! I finished another row on my sisters shaw. It is taking a while, but then so is everything else. Of course, when I started this project she was living in Germany. Her husband's mom isn't doing well so they just moved back to Texas where it is way to warm. Hmm, maybe in an A/C office?

Frannie, thanks for looking at my online store. It's not doing too well at the moment. I need to go in and do some serious work on it.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I cannot master those things that I have not tried.

Thanks so much for all the compliments on the dress. I wish it were easier to get pictures that actually do it justice. My niece's father-in-law is a Minister so I thought the dress would be a good choice. I love doing white work - Edwardian period is a favorite of mine.
Blessings, Sheri
