A finish

 I had a Summer project and now that Summer is nearly over and Fall is almost beginning...officially Fall arrives tomorrow. 

My project has been completed. 


It is a mosaic pattern called Hush.  I love the pattern as it  is easily done while watching TV.  There is no rhyme or reason to my color sequence...I just picked seven colors of blues and yellows and used them every which way.


I am off to a craft retreat for a couple of days.  I am just an hour away from home.  Far Guy has some projects planned while I am gone. 

 We have 104 Christmas ornaments ready to paint some time in October. I was very happy to get the final ornaments through Quality Control and touch up...Far Guy did all the woodcarving this year.

    It is really gorgeous, and you amaze me with your ability to crank these beauties out one after another. You must be the Queen at those retreats.

    Your blanket is really beautiful. That dark blue really pops against the other colors. Is it for you and Far Guy or a gift? Great job on the ornaments. You're ahead of the game this year! Today I'm planning to start making the family ornaments that I give all the kids and grands. I have a pattern picked out and will gather all of the materials I need. It's the last Christmas project for this year if you don't count the last pair of socks on the needles. :-)
    Blessings,
    Betsy

    That blanket is stunning! You are so good at choosing colors that go together so well. I have the pattern but who knows when I'll get to it. I always want to do the projects you do!
