Beginning The Long Road To The Finish ~ guest blogger WillyG

Now it's on to that sprawling border!

  1. I'm so glad that you've picked up LOG again and now you're so close to the finish (you are, you are!!) ~ that border seems daunting but as the blanket starts coming off your needles, holy cow....momentum and done before you know it

    can't WAIT to see it!! thanks for taking the time to post ~ I appreciate it and am always glad to see what you're up to, Will :)

    maybe someday we'll get you to share some of your harp music :))))

    1. As of Monday night, I've completed exactly half of the border! I'm trying to bang this one out!

      It's the blocking that seems daunting...this thing is gonna be huge!

    2. daunting blocking ~ my bump in the road with Quill

      done for a week (or more) but no surface big enough to block it on so it sits in a lump and waits :)

    1. It's Celebration dyed by Briar Rose Fibers - merino wool and bamboo, and it's definitely got a sheen to it. I'm a big fan of BRF - at Rhinebeck I almost immediately spent all my money in that booth (as planned).
