Socks for Scott, in Sanguine Gryphon Eidos. The colorway is Simonides. I improvised the stitch pattern, and really like how these turned out.
A modified Baby Surprise Jacket for our friends’ baby CW, who is still in utero. That’s Sundara sock yarn in “Live with Harmony,” which seems auspicious. His current due date is Scott’s birthday, so we should meet the new guy before Halloween. CW’s folks are very happy with the sweater. I’m a bit itchy about the way I did the increases on this one . . . I can’t decide if I like them. We’ll see how it fits.
Sunday, I went to the Sully quilt show, right around the way. There were new quilts–
And old quilts–
And one fantastic quilt the Reston guild is raffling off.
I wish I could show you how beautifully-worked this one is. These women are masters. Just look at the detail in this feather
I think I have a new thing to aspire to.
Now, excuse me while I finish cataloging all of my yarn and fabric and reorganizing my studio. I’m almost done with the yarn, about a quarter of the way through the fabric, and loving the pile of give-aways I’m building.

Those quilts are gorgeous! I love the image of all of them hanging on the line.
I’m partial to quilted feathers – that one is stunning.
