I did get enough of the backing from Thousands of Bolts. It is cut and sewn together. Now it is ready to be mailed for quilting.
I finished the socks I was making. I picked up the yarn a couple of weeks ago because it was half price. How good it feels to use right away. Now to make socks from the yarn I have on hand.
I began this shawl last year. It is a free pattern from The Wooly West. A very easy shawl to make. The yarn is the real stuff........Fresh off the sheep. Not pleasant to work with but will really keep you warm. The lace edging is knit onto the shawl. I made a smaller edition of this shawl from blue yarn some time ago and used this brown as the lace edging.
You have a lot to show for your efforts this week. I wish I had so many finishes! Nice work. I am especially envious of your socks!

Your quilt is amazing! I really like how you have tried to use up your fabrics instead of buying more...very inspiring!
