Pure Knits

So today the UPS guy brought me something extra special; a box full of copies of Pure Knits. We’ve waited forever for this book to come out! But it’s finally here and I can now, officially say that I’m published.

My two patterns, a boy’s raglan sweater and a girls raglan dress with puffed sleeves are right around the middle of the book. Here’s a peek at what they look like.

A month and a half ago my little sister and only sibling, moved 250 miles away to denver. Three days before that she found out she was having twins. At her ultrasound at 20 weeks, surprise, twins!

Twins!

So my promise to make one baby quilt turned into making two baby quilts and bam! Here we are: the shower has come and gone and I still need to make two baby quilts!

I’m feeling real excited for the plan that I have for the first quilt. As you can see I have the very beginnings going. It is going to be terribly cute, I antcipate. All I know is that they could be here in 2 months and I’ve gotta get sewin!
