finished a few projects

I finally finished a blanket.  It's taken several weeks to use up most of my acrylic yarn pieces.  That was my goal: to get my yarn box down to a manageable size.  I still have a few balls of variegated acrylic because I didn't think that would go well in this blanket.  Now I have several balls of cotton, but as that is my favorite, I'm sure I will find uses for it.

I also made another burp cloth for a new nephew.  I took longer to figure out the stitch than it did to complete the project....I finally read the instructions.  :)

I made a casserole dish and bowl for a nieces upcoming wedding.  The inside is painted with what is said was lime green.  It looks like spicy brown mustard on the speckled brown clay I used.  I do like the speckles though and the mustard color still looks good with the dark outside color that is forest green.

The top picture is closer to the actual color.  The yellow in bottom picture should look like spicy brown mustard.

Next project to finish:  10 piggy banks.   Possibly wishful thinking on my part, but we'll see.
