So I’ve decided to make a Granny Stripe Blanket for the back of our couch. I’m going with Lucy of Attic 24′s pattern. I’m not sure of the finished size, but I know it is 240 chains long! Here are a couple pictures of Lucy from Attic 24's finished blanket:
The couch is a burnt orange, kind of rustic in feel, so I think some bright colors like in this blanket would go nicely! It’ll take me quite some time I’m sure, but I will post my progress as I work on the blanket.
We are heading to my Grams’ house for the Holidays so I’ll be leaving tomorrow and taking my hooky stuff with me. My Mom will be there too and we plan to each work on our blankets together. Should be fun! She’s figuring out her colors as we speak!
Got lots to do today…..I’ve packed up the baby bag, Hubby has had his shower (Thank God, PEE-EWWW! ~ Kidding Honey, he smells lovely as always)….I still need to get some stuff together before we head out to finish some last minute Christmas shopping. Thank God there isn’t much left to do!
OMG, I forgot to mention the avoided crisis from last night!!!!! We are SO very lucky my Mom was with us last night, as she had planned to go to my Grams’ house yesterday after work….
The sticker in the picture below was on the bottom of Hubby’s Detroit Tigers cup. Baby Girl loves it because it makes a cool noise when you rub your fingernails over it. We let her play with the cup yesterday morning not realizing it was on the bottom. ALL day she kept gagging and looking like she was going to throw up. I checked her over and over and found nothing. She cried and screamed like something was bothering her but I couldn’t figure it out! She even ate and drank her bottles with this in her throat. I called my Mom at work, frantic that something wasn’t right, I just knew it. I kept looking and sticking my fingers in her mouth to check for an object but I felt NOTHING. My Mom left work and when she checked Baby Girl over, we still found nothing. After a nap, Mom was playing with her on the floor and that’s when she saw something shiny…This sticker was in the back of her throat! THANK GOD WE FOUND THIS! I shudder to think of what might have happened.
