Another Sunday and another magazine finished and on its way out of the house. Here's my picture for you.
This is from HGTV magazine June 2016. They really don't have a colorful back page, but the first page always has a "Front Door of the Month." Isn't this pretty? A light blue door really wouldn't fit with the red bricks and white concrete of the front of my house, but I sure love that lemon wreath they have. Maybe I could make something like that for my door for next year. I'm sure there are some fake lemons at one of the dollar stores around here that I could use. Hmm....
Now that I've finished Joe's temperature blanket, I can start on the one for this year. OK, I really did start it in January, but it didn't work out and I ripped it out. Three times. I hated it. And that's one reason I decided to do Joe's first. That and the idea that I wanted to give it to him for his birthday. So now it's back to mine.
I am attempting to knit 10 rows a day. This way I get through each month in 3 days. So far I have finished January.

You can see from the gray and navy how cold it was. I can vividly remember that time. I was always cold. It's on to February today.
I'm getting excited about going away this week. It's going to be so much fun. But now I have tons to do. There's always something.
So until later...

I like the lemon wreath on the door. Your blanket is going to be very nice too. I know you are looking forward to getting away on your trip. Have a good Monday.

ReplyDeleteThe lemon wreath is lovely. If you make one, be sure to show us a photo of it. Your blanket is going to be beautiful. Enjoy your vacation. You have a fabulous day, hugs, Edna B.
ReplyDeleteWe have two darker blue doors at our house...wreathed really show nicely on them. Never knew how much I liked blue doors till we saw this house!
ReplyDeleteHave fun on your getaway! Hope it doesn't rain too much for you...we had over 3 inches of rain this weekend. It's to be a rainy week here.
Kathy, My daughter finally painted her front door a pale yellow...the house is blue. It looks great. I am sure you could come up with a cute lemon wreath of your own. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
ReplyDeleteKathy...that's going to be lovely...I adore those color combinations! I look forward to your finished product!
ReplyDeleteOur across-the-street neighbors painted their door a light green. I didn't care for it at first but it has grown on me. The light blue in your photo is very nice! Have fun on your trip!
