Hard to believe it is already May 1st…Happy
May Day 😊
I’m pleased to say that I am making progress on my
UFO busting.
You can see my finished Farm Girl blocks by
clicking here.
I also completed two more Building Blocks from
Michelle Hunter’s book.
#10 was a lesson in the Slip-Slip-Knit (SSK)
stitch
#11 was a lesson in the Make One stitch
#12 and final block is underway.
I’m learning Advanced Decreases in this
lesson.
Next will be to ‘block’ each piece and then
assemble them into a small afghan.
Sounds like a good project for my May OMG goal, so it is!
In addition to finishing this UFO, I’ll complete
two more Farm Girl blocks and get back to the two table runners I missed in
April.
Visit Patty at Elm Street Quilts to see what goals
others have set for May and don’t forget Meredithe at pomegranate and chintz
for 17 UFOs in 2017.
Have a great week!

Good luck with your goal, that will be a pretty finish, indeed!
I'm anxious to see the finished product, the blocks are very pretty. I was never able to conquer knitting. I even took lessons, I have never been so frustrated in my life. So that a thumbs up from me.
What pretty blocks you are creating. Love that slip, slip, knit one.
I love the texture in your knitted blocks. Have fun with your OMG this month!
Right! May already!!! Have fun with your knitting. (Love the color)
love your knitted blocks. so fun! the color and stitches are gorgeous!
I don't knit, but I might try crocheting blocks to learn more stitches. For me, that would be a winter project. Everyone I speak to is amazed that May is here, we are just waiting for the normal May WEATHER to arrive.

Can't wait to see this finish. Thanks for linking up with Elm Street Quilts One Monthly Goal and good luck on your project.
Such pretty turquoise yarn. Well, I am calling it turquoise for lack of a better word.
Working towards your goals have kept you focused and seeing progress. It's been another successful month.
You're going to have a beautiful afghan with your pretty blocks.
May already and I've only finished ONE of my 17!!
Such sweet Farm Girl blocks and I love your knitting lesson blocks.
Just one left? That's terrific, it will make a beautiful afghan!
Congratulations on reaching your monthly goals!
Love the color you are using...it will make a pretty afghan. You're really on a roll this year! Go you! Are you camping this weekend or have any fun plans?
What a terrific way to learn new stitches and techniques. What will you do with the blocks when all done?
