September Song

Here is the center of my completed mystery quilt. As the title shows, I have named my quilt "September Song". It just didn't look like "crush" anything. Reminds me more of fall than anything else. Finally decided on how I want to do the borders. They will be kept simple. No pieced borders at all. The quilt center is so busy that there really needs to be a quiet place......someplace for the eye to rest. I will be sure to share a picture once the borders are on. As for the left-over pieces....well, I've been playing with them on my design wall and it looks like they will make a nice wall hanging. I'll play with them more once the quilt is done.

Update on my knitting: My sweater is coming along rather nicely. I have done the shaping for the armholes and am real pleased with how it's looking. I'm still working on the sweater back, but hope to finish it up soon. It's not going as quick as I was hoping simply because I don't always have the time to work on it. Some days I'm lucky if I can knit for 15 minutes. Oh well. A little bit of time is better than none. :)
