Today was a busy and fun day for me. I started out by going over to my friend's house for our second class on knitting. Both ladies are doing great. Rhonda is doing continental knitting and Tracy is doing regular knitting or English knitting. I can do continental knitting but only knitting. I have trouble purling with continental knitting so I don't even try. We all had a great time. Rhonda brought banana bread and Tracy's husband fixed us hot tea and we just sat and knitted away. The cat was right there with us trying to take away the yarn and the two dogs were laid out by our feet. What a cozy little group we were. We will not be meeting again for two weeks but the girls have homework to do....
I headed home and went on up to the sewing room. I started working on another of my UFO's. This one wasn't too old. I started working on this one when I went to retreat in October so I don't think that's too bad. Here it is finished and ready to be quilted.
This is Brown Bear:
Sorry for the bad picture, I didn't have anyone to hold it for me...
I also finished three of the five blocks from Barbara Brackman's Civil War Blog. I have two more blocks to catch up on and I'll be up-to-date. These were easy and fun to do...

You were busy, great to get another quilt ready for finishing.
Your quilt top is just lovely....and your blocks are wonderful as well.
Wow... you got a LOT accomplished yesterday! Great Brown Bear quilt... and I love your Civil War blocks!
Sounds like you had a great weekend. It is always fun to share a skill with someone. I love to teach a new skill to someone. Thier enthusiasm always perks me up.
The brown bear quilt is lovely and so are the other blocks.
I really like that Texas tears block. I've never seen that design before.
Love your Brown Bear! I have the Hungry Caterpillar fabric and have done nothing with it yet. Your knitting day sounds so cozy, too! The CW blocks look great. Those are terrific fabrics. By the way, cq4fun.livejournal is me, too. Depends on where I'm signed in which shows up.
