[Nfb-krafters-korner] Henrietta, Cloak?

[Dixie]

Hi Henrietta.

I have thought that the round dish cloth pattern would  make a great
Christmas tree skirt.  Can you tell me what counts you used to make the
cloak?

How large did it turn out?  I am hoping that your pattern would be a great
basis for making the tree skirt.

I do have more then one project going since I joined the group. I used to
finish one before I would let myself start another.  S

Now I have several going at a time. Right now, I am helping my Grand
Daughter make a Colonial Williamsburg home. We have had a ball. Today we
made a sack of flour, I knitted a cloak from half of the round dish cloth
pattern to hang by the door. My friend came over Friday to help us make a
quilt for the bed and a table cloth.  We have made two rugs. One runner from
the stick weaving and a round rug made from the pattern for basket weaving.
We found a rock in the yard to put by the fireplace. It will be heated and
warmed for the bed.  This should be done today. She does have until Friday
to turn it in.But why delay?

I have a prayer shall that has sat here for over a year. I took it out and
redid it on the knifty knitter. I have eighteen inches done and plan on
giving it to church before Easter. I have to give myself deadlines to keep
me on task.  

I love to have a tiny project like a dish cloth going and then the prayer
shall is a stationary project that can't travel like the dish cloth. 

I always have a kitchen plan with a new recipe or technique to do.  There is
always a plan in the back of my mind for the next project.

This Apple computer is a big project. Since I have a lesson each week I now,
get the last lesson memorized before the teacher returns.

So I guess my deadlines have to do with others So does that make me socially
motivated?
