I have pictures of SW here there and everywhere. However I can't keep up so I decided to make a base and then add a new picture and simply update the post date whenever I finish something from now on. Sound good? (Oh SPIT!! This just came to me - I need to reverse the order and place them at the top. Spit! Well it's not going to get done tonight I've been fighting this blog most of the day for one thing or another. Some day...........down the road............I MAY change the order.) O/W DEAL with it. On another note I'm thinking our group should start our own blog or FB to showcase each of our work. Hmmmm (gears grinding...)
Meanwhile I'm going to try hard to be able to FIND the name of each. This, in itself, may take a LONG time. I am currently working on bedspreads for KaCe and Ethan. (I remember my Aunt Della (tablecloth) and my Aunt Sarah (bedspread) worked on these two things for 50+ years............. (shudder) I sure hope I get them finished I have a long list of "stuff" people would like and that I'm itching to try.
Yes I am still Swedish Weaving. The OCD is pretty solid so don't plan to stop anytime soon. The grey one was my first - for Whitney. I finished it in Denver after Aedan was born. I couldn't figure out the contrasting stitch but Whit said she wanted it this way. SO I decided to just add to this and update the post date.

The second one was for daughter #4 - Kaycee. And of course I don't have a picture of it done. It is the same Peaks and Valleys pattern. And IT didn't have the contrast stitch either. :)
Once I got back to NM I did the Peaks and Valleys properly. Well, somewhat proper. That contrast stitich got me for awhile until I modified it. :) Yes, Cathy there IS an extra little bauble.

There is just something about that particular vibrant blue. It reaches out and touches.

Love your idea about a group, let me know if I can help certainly wanna be a part of that. Your table runners, blankets and the sort are gorgeous I think I'm gonna get mine together too, great showcase! I'm currently working one for Cody, he had chosen three different stitches for one blanket, I think he hates me!!! Anyway good stuff mom.
Please help! I am just starting out and learning from a book which is rather difficult. I want to use the Italian hem stitch for my afghan. But I cannot find a good example on the net. Any suggestions?
