When that is done I wonder if the Earth will get the same treatment.
On a completely different note my sneezing caused a minor accident yesterday.
I sneezed so violently that I banged into a cupboard door handle, it isn't big but it hurt and I almost saw stars.
On a better note this is now finished.
It is a gift and has been waiting for absolutely ages to be quilted and bound.
I have rounded off the corners ( thanks to Jean Truelove) but saved the detail. The piano key border was a last minute addition that will be repeated, it used up lots of scraps.
I have just started the gusset decreases on a pair of socks, I like to keep my hand in with heel flap and gusset construction, it is the best fit for Francesca. I repeated the pattern from the last hat that I finished.
I put them away in the middle of a round, bad bad, but it was my hospital knitting. When W comes out of the treatment room he just wants to get out of the building and into the car and then home.
They will be finished before next week so I will have to get another pair on the needles, or perhaps a hat.
Now I have to get ready to take the dogs out and think about dinner.
The SO wants Christmas pudding and cream!!!? And he's started wittering on about Advent Calendar Chocolate. I may call his bluff and talk about getting the tree up.

Hi Pam :) I have an advent calendar planned, actually I'm putting that together today. We mainly have it for the treats inside though :) I go overboard on holidays! I love your quilt and socks!! I hope you feel better...a sneeze-related injury, ouch!
ReplyDeleteI still have a small scar but no bruise, thank goodness.
DeleteWhat a beautiful quilt!
ReplyDeleteWhat is a piano key border? JanF
A piano key border is made up of short strips of fabric sewn together like a keyboard and then sewn to the edge of your quilt.
DeleteI hope all other sneezes now take place in the middle of a room! LOVE the quilt and what pretty socks. Sorry that W has to go to Hospital for treatment - no fun at the best of times.
ReplyDeleteKeep warm.
Ouch!! Hope it is not still hurting. The quilt is so cheerful - love the rounded corners and the piano key border. Great job!
ReplyDeleteIt would be nice to think earth would get the same treatment wouldn't it?
ReplyDeleteOuchy wowchy I feel your pain. I smacked my head on the unit at the side of the bed the other week and saw stars.
Love, love, love your quilt.
Hugs-x-
Lucky person who gets that quilt. I do like the piano borders and the rounded corners are lovely on your stashbuster. Catriona
