Sorting

This week I've been sorting through some old WIPs, and reorganizing a bit.  My Mother in law gave me another bag of goodies from her stash, and I have been integrating it into my stash.  Sigh.  I need to work faster.  Here are some yo-yo's I rescued from an old quilt, and a pretty embroidered towel found at a thrift store.

A very old crochet table runner from my MIL.

A quilt that I made 3 years ago is finally quilted.  Just sewing the binding on now.   I don't know what took me so darn long to finish.  I'm pretty sure the fabric is out of print.
Ta-Da picture coming later.

I'm going on a road trip to visit my daughter tomorrow.  I made her a little something for her apartment out of an old pink and white embroidered towel and some fabric scraps.  Slapped on one of those yo-yo's , and a silk ribbon for hanging.  I miss that girl.

Then I discovered a women's center in town. It's run by volunteers, and they teach quilting, knitting and crochet.  It's a nice space with cubbies full of yarn, tables set up with sewing machines, and ladies bent over their work, chatting away.   I ended up signing on for an art quilt class.   But more important, I can go in every Wednesday morning and Jan is going to help me with my knitting! 
Somehow I need to squeeze some knitting practice in between all the quilting and crocheting going on around here.
 

  I plan on checking out the yarn shops in the Monterey Bay area this weekend.  I've been itching to start a new crocheted blanket.  What are you guys working on?
