I've decided that I'm just not feeling it to finish the Christmas table runner I started a few weeks ago.
I had put one green border on it, and it made the other greens look dull.
To the stash!
I found a good red fabric with poinsettias, and that's going to be really good. I think the green will still work as the binding, but after taking off one of those looong sides I don't feel like pushing on that project right now.
Last night as I was finishing cleaning the drum carder the band snapped. I had fused it once, and hopefully I'll be able to do it one more time, but it's getting super old and cracking so I decided to just bite the bullet and get a new one.
I'll photograph the yarn I spun and plied this week later when there's good light:
Luckily Gillian's quilt was coming along very nicely! The goal was to have it finished by Saturday morning (it's currently Friday evening) so that she can take it with her for her third semester of college. I'm so proud of the way she's taken this project by the horns and run with it! She's done every bit of the sewing and cutting (except for four blocks for the borders that I cut). We've faced reality and pushing to get it done before she leaves would be insane, so we'll ship it to her once it's finished.
