Better Late Than Never - Post by Guest Blogger Sue

Can't believe it's August!  I fully intended to start my Quill back in June, but have been so busy and distracted.  Having my middle daughter home from college, and my youngest out of school for the summer, has kept me away from my knitting. I thoroughly enjoy having a full house, and we have been filling our days with fun activities.

I am using Madelinetosh Merino Light, in the Posy color.  I have a ridiculous amount of TML, so thought I should de-stash for this KAL, as opposed to buying more yarn. (Although, always love an excuse to do that!)  I have admired the one color versions of this project, so am going to do that. I know I will have enough yarn to do the smaller size.



Hope everyone is having an enjoyable summer, wherever you are!

    well here you are :)

    I've only got about 4" done of the garter square so you'll be caught up to me soon if you aren't already!

    welcome back, Sue!

    Your Quill is going to be beautiful! I have been on the edging for a while now. I have turned one corner. I hope you enjoy making your Quill as much as I have.

      Thank you, Andee. I saw yours, it's gorgeous!! Can't wait to get to the edging, since that part looks like a lot more fun than the garter stitch!

    It is beautiful, and Melissa is right there are a few of us still on the garter block. I am so impressed that you are using your stash. What colors do you want to use for your edging?

    Thank you! I am going to use the Posy color for the entire project, since I have quite a bit of it.
