oh what a weekend!

i still have the tune "oh what a night" playing in my head.

i had a very nice weekend. i didn't accomplish as much as i'd dreamed … we never do. however, it was still a goooood weekend.

i can't share all right now, as i really want to settle into my sofa with netflix & yarn.

but, i will share this ….


mom and i rode on down towards gaffney to the outlets. she had purchased a new car the day before, and she said it needed to "stretch its legs".

so, this was sort of a test drive.

on the way there, we always pass the big gaffney peach. but on this day, it was wearing a hat! after i got home (tonight) … i googled why it was wearing a hat. i found this article online.

on my way home (mom/parents home) (not my home-home), i also made a stop at mary jo's.

mary jo's is my favorite fabric store ever. people can brag about how fabulous their fabric store is (and there really are some great ones in big cities). BUT, this one is local ----- and always a treat.

mom was miff'd i'd spent 2 hours there on my way to visit her, but i was on a mission.

i really wanted to find some fabrics for my friend's upcoming show (ps. she has a Facebook page), which has a circus theme.




so, this is what i got.

she said "clownish" … screams "clown"!

i did my best.

what will these be? pennants! i've made some before, from this great tutorial.

i think i have enough for 4 length of pennants.

anyhoo … i will work on these in the next two weeks. tonight, i just want to rest and knit, and watch some netflix.

there was a nice view out my window tonight.


the colors reminded me of my current sweater project --- juniper in irvington.

which, i've started (again) for the 4th time. don't ask.

as the evening closes … enjoy this blast from the past.
