Our Nephew's Coat - one little monkey




Well after mentioning it in April- it finally happened for our nephew's 2nd birthday - in August!


We hope it fits him- if not he has a younger brother, so we know it won't go to waste....

I'm back with 200 blocks




well I never really left- I just forgot to blog. I have made a few things since April, but I wasn't as productive this summer as last. I had a "part-time" job that was sometimes 12 hours/day.

Anyway... in case you ever wondered what 200- 8.5 inch squares looked like, here it is! My cats are guarding them closely (or rather sniffing to see where they've been). This is a project for my God Daughter, consisting of some 18 + receiving blankets. Soon to be homemade chenille. (NO, I didn't realize how much work this was until I really got into it, but hey it's fun!) 40 of the blocks you see here are 4 layers deep- otherwise they would not fit in my living room!
