Birthday gifts

Tonight we celebrate dual birthdays of two good friends. I wanted to make something special, but I've been crazy busy this week with work. So I chose the eye mask from Amy Butler's book.


Quilting the fabric wasn't bad, but I think next time I'll use one layer of thick batting (instead of two- I guess four thin layers isn't the same as two thick layers).


The fabric is remnant from my Built by Wendy blouse, and I'm so happy I found a way to use it again and share it.


This week I did manage to knit about 4 inches on the scarf. It's going slowly, especially since I had to frog about two inches when I simultaneously dropped and picked up a stitch (in different places, alas). Oh well....
