New and Old

 I can say I am only a day late but the 12 Days of Christmas quilt top is completed!
It went together so easily I couldn't believe it was done in no time!
Now I need to find some fabric for the backing
and I will load it up on the frame
and turn it into a quilt!
I resurrected a languishing project-it must be at least a year that I left it alone!
I thought I could remember the instructions ( the pattern wasn't in the basket )
but  I made mistake after mistake and had to look it up and reprint it 
and then it was no time at all and I was on my way again.
I had thought about ripping this out but it is so pretty 
so I will keep knitting until I run out of yarn.
It is lace weight, so the yarn will run on forever which is well because I can't stand a skimpy shawl!

  6. Such a beautiful quilt top and shawl. I'm so glad you could reprint the instructions and carry on. It would have been a shame to rip it all out.
    Blessings,

  8. Wow, on the 12 day of Christmas seems so far away! Your quilt is just so lovely. Someone took a quilt out at a concert yesterday and I hated to see it put down on the grass !
