And some non-quilting progress

While I'm procrastinating on my quilting projects, I have finished 2 baby blankets (1 crochet, one knit) and finishing a second cardigan/sweatshirt for my kids.



One of the crochet blankets I made:
The blanket is crochet, the hat is knit with "crab stitch trim" and crochet flower.
Yarn used: Dark Horse Fantasy

A new quilt

This quilt was started a while ago.
But... as it usually goes, I had other projects to finish, then I needed more fabric, then I decided to go with another blender.
I have 14 (out of 35) blocks needed for this quilt.

But I had to play with the blocks a little...

I simply love the flow of the waves and how the shades of purple/lilac/ play together.



Now I can wait to finish it and quilt it with these free-form flowing waves.

Blocks I have so far.
