the incredible shrinking woman

My free time is so shrinking! I wanted to blog yesterday. But the kids had other plans. Hmmmm.

My quilt blocks are shrinking!


3", 6", 9", 12"

My first block of the month blocks were 12" square. This year's block of the month blocks are 9" square. My civil war sampler blocks are 6" square. And the teeny tiny block is the 3" square center for my latest civil war block, the North Star.

And, the best of all, my stash is shrinking! This is your warning. The BIG yarn and book sale is a-coming! I'll start by posting a list of knitting books for sale tomorrow. There's newer releases in there and some oldies-but-goodies as well. All are in like-new condition and I'll be selling them at about 50% off. Then comes the yarn. There's Debbie Bliss, Rowan, Lornas Laces and way way more. It's all gonna be priced to sell, so check back Thursday for that. Oh boy!

I now read a little guiltily about how much "school learning" is lost in the summer months, but I loved the long, lazy summer when the kids were little. Will keep my eyes peeled for your sale.
