Are You Tired of Looking at This Yet?

I hope not, because I'm not tired of making it yet, and even if I were, I've got a long way to go!

I started out all gung-ho, thinking how great it would be if I could do a set of 8 placemats, matching napkins, and a table runner. Deep down, I knew that wasn't going to happen, but I had my fantasies. My current, much more realistic, goal is to make 4 placemats. I should be able to do that by the end of April. And if I feel like keeping going, I can always add more stuff as anniversary presents or something. Or not.

Fortunately, my cousin has no idea I'm doing this. So instead of being disappointed that I can't do all of my ideas, she can be thrilled that I did this at all.

He always starts out sleeping curled in a ball and ends up like this.

  2. NO, definitely not tired of seeing the glass mat yet!!! That's how my jacket started as a glass mat and then it was going to be a placemat then a trolley cloth and finally after two years it became a sleeveless jacket!!! Small steps. I think the colours are wonderful too.
