Halfway through the Weekend

I can't believe I haven't blogged all week. I wish I could say it has been because I'm oh so busy. But that is hardly the case. Rather I haven't had anything thought provoking or interesting to write about...but of course that has never stopped me from blogging before. Even now all I really have for you are pictures.

First, as promised, here is my first finished object for Spot:

Pattern: Tiramisu Blanket
Designer: Alicia Paulson
Yarn: Blue Sky Organic Cotton in Brown
Ravelry Link

I still haven't been able to get a photo of this blanket that does the color justice. It is a really rich chocolate brown but the picture above makes it look washed out. I still need to add a ribbon that will go around the edge just before the scalloping. If it's a boy I'm thinking of a turquoise blue and if it's a girl I'm thinking of a deep pink. After I add that, I'll post it again and maybe I'll finally get a good picture of the color. I really need photography lessons, I guess!

If you recall some of my posts from the fall, maybe you'll remember me lamenting about gardening and my lack of a green thumb. Well the daffodils and tulips I planted are in bloom and looking quite lovely. (But please ignore all of my hubby's junk in the background).
