That's me!
I finished the Yule Tree afghan yesterday, but didn't feel well enough to wrestle it around and weave in all the "tails." After I do, I'll take a photo of it to post. I think it came out well. Trying to figure out what to make next. I just puttered around with making some granny squares from scraps yesterday evening. Maybe it's time for another "triple feature" afghan.

Beautiful work, Merry! Love the colors!
 
It ranks up there....I'm glad I don't have to pick one over the other. We had a feast! I brought a smoked breakfast casserole experiment which was quite tasty, sausage bread, bacon jerky (which was gone before I even got down the basement....) & cinnamon rolls. Everybody else brought casseroles, meats, fruit, juices, coffee, birthday cake & homemade ice cream. I ate way too much!

Wowza!! Delicious!!!!
 
Evening all,
I am behind a lot with posts and was only able to check in now and then today. It's been manic today. Luckily I slept pretty well. I had this dream about Marie (my husbands grandmother who passed away recently).I woke up and couldn't really remember anything. I wonder what she was trying to tell me.

I
Hope your having a good day so far!

Glad that you slept well last night.
It's lovely that Marie visited you in your dreams last night. It must've been comforting <3

Hope you guys have a blessed evening!

Hmm she probably just wanted to let you know that she's ok (that's my guess). But it's interesting how things happen like that after someone passes. I will never forget my mom calling me the day after my grams passed while I was at work and we started talking about her. Suddenly my mom said the t.v. is changing channels by itself and it stopped on the news that my grandmother watched every day. Coincidence? I think not.

That would've made me smile- chills!
 
Good Afternoon, friends~

Adrian and I have an appointment today in our new neighborhood to decide on placement for our transom window and fireplace, and also to take some measurements. We are excited!

It is a beautiful winter day filled with glittery snow flurries, sun, and fog.

Hope your Monday is going well!

*Hugs & prayers*

That is very exciting indeed!!! Best of luck to you guys. Sounds like you have the perfect snowy setting! Can't believe how it's coming together so quickly now! You will soon be moving in!!!!!

That made me smile and tear up at the same time! I am with you. That was no coincidence!
 
WOW that is stunning!
It reminds me of film reels.
That's EXACTLY what it's supposed to be! Look closely and you'll see the sprocket holes!
Around the border, there are little bobbles that look like marquee lights.
I designed it some years ago for Mr., because we get so much pleasure out of films.

As soon as I saw it, it was the first thing to come mind! It is brilliant that you could do that.

Beautiful work, Merry! Love the colors!
Thank you!
The theater where I saw my first movie had curtains about that shade of maroon. But I've also made one or two in blue, one that was a sort of peach color, and one that is a golden tan color. Most of the others are maroon.

Thank you! I made two or three "prototypes" before I figured out how to make the sprocket holes and how to piece together the horizontal and vertical pieces. Then I took notes, and pretty much stick to them when I make a new one. I think I've made close to 20 of them for various film-collector friends of ours, including one for a film-festival auction and a couple for our own use. Somewhere I have a notebook that lists where each one went.

I entered one in a county fair some years ago, and it didn't even get an honorable mention. A garden-variety granny-square afghan won the blue ribbon. I kept the "loser" for myself and use it on the bed.
