“Art is the only way to run away without leaving home. Twyla Tharp”

Hello ladies,

Yesterday I read this beautiful quote and found it so true, dont you think?

So, how’s everything? It’s been ages since I last post…I’ve been busy a lot this previous week and missed you…

I am now making the final touches on my MONSTER…crocheting the border…yaaaaay…it is turning out great!

It is so heavy and really really big and I love putting it all on my knees while crocheting 🙂 This is my biggest project and I am so proud of myself…

I started this blanket on the 4th of october with a little fear that I’ll not be able to finish it…but now, I am so close to see it done that I can not help myself every minute of the day to go take a look and make 2 or 3 stitches of the border…

So, I hope, this week I’ll show it to you 100% done with lots lots lots of pics!

I don’t know yet how i am gonna take it with my camera but I’ll find a way for sure to show it to you from every corner:)

So, before leaving you, I am gonna send you sunshine and warm weather  through my blog… hoping to receive some beautiful white snow from yours…  (we have a 30 Celsius outside today and I really miss the autumn weather)

Have a beautiful monday!

Sunshiny kisses,

Sucrette

    Wow that is gorgeous! I could do with that on my knees at the moment as it is freezing and snowy here in West Yorkshire! Isn’t it fantastic when you get to the border?

    Absolutely, “monstruosly” (don’t know if this word exists) gorgeous ! I love it and yes you can be proud of yourself. All these colours brings me the sun that’s missing today (we are expecting some snow during the day and the sky is completely grey).
    Thank you for briging us some magic.
    Big freezing hugs.

    Hi Angie! You were so right calling this a MONSTER. It truly is. But it is also gorgeous and with the snow and the freezing temperature over here I can only wish that I joined you in making such a beautiful blanket.
