OPAM October
A final finish for the month of October ... this soft bundle is ready for a baby boy to snuggle into.
Feeling good with four small finishes for the month ... enjoying some simple knitting in the evenings before the weather gets too hot.
Looking back through posts, I noticed that I hadn't shared my first baby boy bundle. These bunny rugs are simple and so cuddly. I can also get a mini snuggy from the cutoff fleece.

FNSI or a Knit In
Below is my original post from Sunday evening but just before I could publish I lost interent.
This would have to be a record for me ... almost half a wash cloth knitted in an evening. A few more rows wathcing 'Landline' (Farmers' program on ABC) at lunch and finished it off while watching an Elvis Presley movie 'Girl Happy' this afternoon ...
Storm clouds, loud thunder and crazy lightning are closing in so I'm off before the power goes.
See what other lovely pieces were being created on Friday night by clicking HERE.
So to continue on: Still no interent ... I'm hot-spotting to my phone on limited data so this will be quick. The wind was crazy and we also had golf ball size hail ... not much rain but our dams are all full and we just need the grass to get growing now. I really hope others have received some much needed rain too.
Sad to say, I won't be blog hopping until connection is back to normal ... hoping everyone has a lovely week with lots of time to be creative.

FNWF and Other Things
Never thought I'd be playing with paints Friday but that's where I started.
Then after dinner my black and whites called to me and I was able to finish joining all the horizontal seams on each strip.
Now I have 20 completed strips to begin joining the long side seams.
With NRL finals on the tv, I still had some time to sit and make these sweet little heart shape puffs and a couple of leaves to decorate my shopping bag.
When I went to post on Friday, I found a draft post sitting waiting so I best share here now. This was the second dish cloth completed with the microfibre wool.
Wishing every night could be a Friday night.

Traditional Windy August
A chilly wind is howling outside today ... so I'm staying indoors playing with wool and fleece. Fresh off my knitting needles is a new wash cloth, perhaps a baby cloth in these soft colours.
I've just put my last cloth into use at the kitchen sink and oh boy is it absorbent ... love it!
Our youngest grandson P is off to daycare once a week and DD asked if I would like to make a shaggy bag for his 'nap time' things ... then later it can become his library bag. Diving into my stash I found two packs of 5" squares ... so why not make two bags while I was at it. Pictures show both sides of each bag with 'I Spy' fabrics.
While August seems to be the month for making progress in the sewing room, this week I found my polar fleece fabric purchased to make some more bunny rugs. I don't think I've even shown this one on my blog ... made a couple of months ago.
Makes a sweet gift set for a baby girl I think.
So I now have the fleece cut ready for 2 more bunny rugs with matching face washers.
Also, a couple months back, a local fabric shop showed a pic of a doggy print fleece she had in ... so I just had to buy some with the intention of making a new coat for Millie. This one is lined with leftover fleece from the first bunny rug so a little more stash busting as well.
Yesterday I cut out 3 more doggy coats ready for sewing. And I still have the 2nd half of the ball of wool to knit another wash cloth.
Not forgetting that my lovely little tags for Ruth's Quilt are sitting in the draw waiting to be trimmed to size along with gorgeous black/white fat 1/4's. But I don't want to frighten away my newly refreshed mojo by jumping in the deep end. I'll just keep floating about somewhere in the middle ... finding my balance.
