Maybe I'll get my groove back…

Hi! I'm Vicki. I began blogging at knitorious in 2004! I knit, sew, dye, garden, and cook. I'm a daughter, sister, aunt, wife, mother, and grandmother!

I’m really slow… super super slow! But I (usually) keep at it(s). Between all the other things (not just making things… there’s cleaning things & cooking things & shopping for things, etc., and even working 😂). It sometimes take months, or even years. I’d really like to use this project bag, though, so trying to keep this at the fore. The hibiscus at my sister’s house is still going strong—arguably, better than ever! A huge & annoying barberry was removed earlier this year, so there’s more opportunity for the hibiscus to shine. And long-dormant, very invasive Japanese lantern has also emerged. I managed to kill that (& raspberries) in my own yard many years ago without even trying, so there’s hope. After we save some lovely lantern branches. The Great Wisconsin Quilt Show. 55. Need more. No rhyme or reason to the layout, just roughly measuring up against an existing garment. Crochet away!Felted Tweed is a little fuzzy, but OMG the color play. Teetering tower o’ granny squares. I can stop whenever I want to. 😜 What a time to be in Nashville. ❤️🎸🎶❤️ Hm. What’s missing?? 🤣 Starting to cut up the remainder for some flying geese. Yes! I’m back to the quilt!! I’m at my sister’s doing laundry after the departure of guests who were here for the amazing week-long, loud, flashy, sparkly & amazing PGI @pyrotechnicsguildinternational convention 🎆🎇, and working on my MDK @mymoderndailyknitting Summer Camp Project Bag. They left some cerveza in the fridge with my name on it… literally 🍻, so I am indulging! I have some other amazing fabrics to add to this bag, along with some different colors of thread. (Need to continue the archaeological dig in The Little Working Museum.)🪡 It’s a fun project, mashing up a few of my favorite things… and will be a pretty great/useful bag when finished! 32 & still working scraps… some of the balls are getting really small though. It’s been a fun exercise. I have plenty of non-scrap Felted Tweed, so no worries. When I get to 36, I’ll need to find a new photo spot!
