September goals

Well I found that stitching for 10 hours on a project and then moving on left me with a whole lot of knitting at the end of the month so I have decided to set the stitching week by week, hopefully this will sort it out

about how to finish Generosity, when the stitching is complete, I was just over on Katrina’s blog and saw her little buttoned pillows… they look awesome and I think that I might give one of those a try…… now just to go and find some instructions somewhere

Not much else to say…….. LOL

A couple of knitting pictures

Okay now I know they aren’t the best pictures but it gives you the general idea

Andie

Well I dunno if I

Like this new blogger or not…. I am sure once the kinks are worked out it will be better…. I really enjoyed setting up my page and adding photos to the side bar was so much easier! But trying to add photos to a post is a PAIN I had to upload from here…… I also have to sign in EVERYTIME it doesn’t keep me logged in….. I also changed my profile picture to the one on the left But it keeps on swapping back and forth between this my old one and one of Mike that I was going to put on there but decided against……… hmmmm

Anyway onto the picture…. this was taken at the end of March. I have borrowed Mikes scanner to scan them into the computer so that is why you are only seeing it now I have another just of Elle, will put it below *fingers crossed*

They are really cute photos

Cool it worked! LOL Not going to try and move them though

*hugs*

Andie

okay this is

weird!!

Here I have been feeling sorry for myself……nobody had commented on my blog for ages!!! Well I just today changed to beta blogger and there were a TON of comments waiting to be moderated!!!! I didn’t change anything before!!!! So I will now (since I have accepted everything LOL) go and see if I can find the setting to fix!!! I hate when things change on me and don’t tell me! LOL

*hugs* to everyone and thank you for all your lovely comments! I REALLY appreciate them!!

Andie

70 hours…. I think :) LOL will have to check it…

70 hours…. I think LOL will have to check it
~~**Andie**~~

I’ve been sick

I’ve had the flu and it’s not been very nice!!

I’ve also been working extra hours which would have been great except I felt so rotten! :-~~

I have finished my slot on Celtic Noel but…… my batteries went flat and I can’t find my charger…. bummer…….

But I have invested in my first HAED chart…… I bought Ice Wind 1 and it is very pretty! I have ordered the fabric….. plain fabric is a lot cheaper than hand dyed isn’t it?!! LOL

I can’t wait to start and see if it is as nice as the chart picture, so then I have to work out….. 1 strand or 2 over 1???? LOL something new

I have nearly finished Elle’s cardie, just a band and a half to go and the lacy trim around the sleeve edges, should be done pretty soon

I have done a little on Tarissa’s jacket but trying to concentrate on Elle’s and then move on…. 1 big knitting project at a time WIP’s for knitting don’t work to well, they grow out of them before you finish them….. does this sound like I have done it before? LOL I also have some sock yarn and a pattern to try when I get the chance Looking forward to trying them

Well thats it from me

*hugs*

Andie

I feel like

I got quite a bit done on Rose of Sharon for this slot, I have heard a lot of people say that the arch and the roses was horrible to do and took forever so I decided I had better make a start on it…. to tell you the truth I am really enjoying it LOL I must be really strange!

Moving on to Celtic Noel next

hope your doing okay Maggie, I’m thinking of you!

*hugs to all!*
