The knitting class consisted of me and the teacher which resulted in a private lesson! Taking the class though reminded me that, even if you can make the item by yourself, you can still learn some cool stuff if you actually take a class. She taught some things that were helpful, and I intend to incorporate those tips into my knitting.

The bed socks are coming along. I have the second class this Friday. The pattern has a very clever trick. When I come to it, I will pass that along.

Saturday was extremely busy, so I'm surprised that I was even able to step into my sewing room. I finished a baby quilt for a friend of ours. She had her baby not too long after our youngest was born in February of this year. I can't remember the pattern I used, but I bought the fat quarter packet from the Quilt Basket here in Tucson years ago. I simply quilted across the squares then around each square in the border. I wasn't too sure about the white sashing, but, as long as the quilt gets use, I doubt it matters much to the baby. In any case, I like it. I hope that the new mom does, too. I'm just sorry that it took me this long to complete it and send it.
