Brickyard and Corona Virus

Have made some headway on my current project.  This afghan named Brickyard.  You can see some are edged, some are connect.  I named it Brickyard because of the red and yellow bricks that the Indianapolis Race track had originally been made of.

I intended to blog after taking the first picture several days ago, but never got that far.  So since then, you can see further progress has been made.  The colors in the first photo are a bit more accurate.  Natural day light vs the light on in the evening in the 2nd picture.

I've not worked on my scarf now for quite awhile, but perhaps I'll work on it again after getting this afghan finished.  If you've visited my blog before you know I donate the afghans through my Charity Blog, Bridge and Beyond, that benefits the homeless.

I know we're all dealing with a lot of changes in our lives due to the Corona Virus.  Most of us are under stay at home orders.  There are only 11 states that have yet to join the rest of us.  I don't understand why they haven't.  To be successful it seems to me everyone needs to be on board.  

Thought this was food for thought.  There seem to be too many people who think somehow their are magically protected and fail to understand it's not just about them, but about their friends, their neighbors, their family, and perhaps people they don't know.  We really all need to fight this.

Thought this was cool, spotted it on Facebook the other day.

PLEASE, stay home and wash your hands.  Stay safe.  Do your part.

I Might Not Make it!

YIKES...the end of the year is near and I've not yet made my charity goal; but am still chipping away trying to.

Made 2 more pair of slippers for Pine Ridge. Both are crocheted. The blue and grey are a little smaller than the fun multi-colored ones. Slippers are a good way of using up left over yarn, by the way.



Working on 10 Preemie Project for Ninja, hoping to get 4 more items done this wkend so I can get in the mail on Monday, running out of time. Got 6 items done. Multi-colored white booties, hat, and sweater could be a set or not. They are knitted, having a hard time getting the color to show up in pictures as it's light. The off white booties are knitted, the rose booties and multi-colored pink hat are both crocheted.






Working on getting the word out about my Bridge Project

Fingers andn toes crossed, Mom seems to be doing slightly better, less pain. Had another MRI yesterday, results are pending.
