If it Ain't One Thing...

It's 12. Well, not really 12. Today has been a pretty good day all in all. I have a killer, sick to my stomache headache that has been building for 2 days. That is I guess the only bad thing that happened today except that my 3 yr old is making me NUTS. Kid won't pay attentin, won't obey, won't list....basically he's being a 3yr old boy.

I finished Mekenzei's bag today and mailed it! I have pictures to share but now my computer won't read my camera. AHHHH!!! It is worked EVERY day, 36 TIMES a day if I want it to. I plugged it into the computer tonight and only half of the pictures loaded. It wouldn't let me transfer any of them them. Every time I tried to unplug and plug it in again I got an annoy little pop up that said USB port not read. Crap.

I didn't make a quilt block today, see previous paragraphs about finishing a bag and having a headache. I've worked a little on spinning some of my Alien Batt I made from lime green dyed romney wool carded with some black merino. It is strange, it is the same wool I used to make my Watermelon yarn about a month ago but for some reason this one is spinning up right between sock weight and worsted weight yarn! Very thin. The good thing is I will get more yarn, the bad thing is I am going to ply it with some glow in the dark thread and the thread is $5 for a spool of 100yds. I only got about 10 minutes worth of spinning done on it, which I also took pictures of but can't share.

I recieved my mini quilt from the 4 Seasons Quilt Swap 5!!!!! I panicked when I saw the envelope though, it came from Australia and my hubby said "Isn't that who sold your Sheep on Safari mini to back in Jan?" I thought oh no, please don't tell me it got lost in the mail and took 2 months to come back!! Nope, it was a wonderful, miniature red quilt! I had to steal pics from Helen's blog since MY CAMERA or COMPUTER SUCKS! but here it is, I love it! Please click on the pictures to look at bigger versions of them because the quilting is so pretty! I think I have just the spot for this, right inside my front door on the wall! I can't wait to get a little wood dowel (probably I will steal a stick from my Mom's yard and sand it) and hang it. Thank you, thank you Helen! I love it! It is called Summer Poppies and it's just beautiful!
