Amber, this is as far as I have gotten with the Beekeeper’s Quilt:
Five little hexipuffs.
That’s as far as I’m ever going to get. I had no business with any other epic projects until the epic project I’ve already started is finished! If anyone can use my little guys, I’d be happy to send them along. I don’t want them to feel lonely and unfulfilled.
The CounterPain is making slow but steady progress.
The CounterPain in its cubby. The yarn is next door.
I’ve got one more square to make another strip of ten. And then – I’ll have to count to be sure – but I think I only need twenty more squares. So I’ve been thinking.
I’m still using the desk in the kitchen even though my office is clean.
I’ve been thinking that next year the Squares will be my take-along project (I usually take a bear or a rabbit for the shop). That should help me get the squares finished. And then all that’s left is the trim. I’ve been thinking a lot about the trim lately.
Must be all that light at the end of the tunnel giving me hope.
Oh good! Since the first year I played Dishrag Tag I’ve looked forward to seeing your everlasting *grins* counterpane completed.
Several years ago I started crocheting an elaborate lacy afghan that I thought would never be done. It took seventeen years total, but happily it’s finished. May The CounterPane see its own happy completion.
Have a great weekend!
WEll I m no hexipuff maker…but you will make SOMEONE very happy.
I started my beekeepers quilt a year ago ( 11 puffs done so far) with a goal to finish by this October. I have now set a new goal to finish by 2014, I plan to start again once my Christmas knitting is done.
If you’re serious about donating to someone else’s quilt, I would be happy to take them off your hands.
