Bummer...

My first pair of socks for Summer of Socks 2008 are bumming me out...They are my usual pattern that I've always made - but, last night as I was looking at them there was a hole in the heel area - and I had dropped a stitch! No matter how hard I tried to pick it up - it wasn't happening!

Ended up ripping back to the beginning of the heel and now I'm back to where I was last night...feel bummed about it! But - I am not giving up!!!!

Out and About...

Recently on one of our sunny days took a ride up toward Cornish, New Hampshire. I'm always in Cornish as that is where my quilt guild meets - usually at the school and in the summer at either the church or the new fire station!

Passed this beautiful red barn with the stone fencing. It just looked so peaceful around it...
A bunch of iris surrounded the stop sign...they just seemed to welcome one to that particular corner.
As I was driving along - spotted this tree - yes, that is mushrooms growing on the tree ... really!
Since I had never seen that before - I thought it needed further investigation...Yep...mushrooms - and not dainty little things either!
And, this would be the underneath view...
I found it totally amazing!!!!

Oh, I'm past the heel on my first sock in the Summer of Socks 2008!!!! I have said I was going to make 3 pair...by September...
