Still working on Toxic Socks -- but here's more quilt squares

My March blocks from Block of the Month course from Craftsy.com.

Toxic Socks, Quilt blocks, and Grandsons

I've made a little progress on the Toxic Socks mentioned in my previous post. Not enough for a photo, tho.

February quilt blocks are completed.  My seams need help - some are a bit off!  I'm going to blame that on my old sewing machine.  Or maybe on my new trifocals.

We had a family bowling party last night.

Sport (now 8)

and Buster (6) had loads of fun.

What I'll be working on during the Super Bowl

Have a decent start on these.  For DD3 - same specs as the previous pair except for a different shade of purple.  This is Knit Picks' Sprinkle Heather...includes blue shades.

An FO for January 2012

Now off to get ready for work & cast on for another pair of Toxic Socks [a Ravelry link.] This time for DD3.

Quilt blocks!!

I'm going to Kitchener a pair of socks tonight (more on them another time.)

But first - I've got two quilt blocks completed. My first "real" quilt blocks! I signed up for the (free) Block of the Month course from Craftsy.com.

The wonky pound sign block really IS 12.5" square, just photo graphed at an angle.

Happy 2012!

Wishing a happy & healthy 2012 to all
