New Projects

It probably is not wise to begin two new projects but I cannot resist as they are for two exchanges.  The bad part about this is that I am participating in a third exchange and will have to begin that one soon.  Here are the materials for the two exchanges that I currently have ready. 


The first one is just white on blue. 


For the second one, I have substituted the threads to go with fabric that I have.  None of this is suggested in the original design.  In both cases, I am digging into my stash.  That makes me feel virtuous. 

Our temperatures continue to be frigid, frigid, frigidly boneshattering cold.  It is soup weather so I am using ham left from dinner this past Sunday to flavor bean soup which I am currently cooking for dinner tonight.  Someone in the household wants to use buns that we have to make ham sandwiches to go with the soup.  I want fresh, crusty artisanal bread perhaps with some brie.   I think that we can accommodate both desires.

Both new projects look good. I like the crispness of the top one, and your colour choices are very pretty for the second
