TO THE REPAIR SHOP

My sewing machine shows this message every few seconds which makes it very hard to do any stitching so I took it to my repairman.  It was an hour drive there and then another one to home so the trip was tiring.  The good news is he is pretty sure it is only a mechanical problem and not a hard drive one
which is encouraging!
I finished this C2C (corner to corner) blanket using a DK yarn
 using a G hook;  it is 40" x 48".
The Granny Square blanket is almost out of yarn but more is on its way!  I am going to start stitching this by turning it after every round because I read it will help to keep it from going wonky.  
We will see!
Just a few blocks from the sewing machine store is a WalMart so I stopped in to buy some more Mandala yarn in DK but the only cake they had was the one I already used for a blanket so I opted for this kind which is a worsted weight one.
I used a much bigger hook, an I hook (5.5mm) , which gives
a nice drape to this new C2C blanket!
