Some finished stuff

Happy Go Lucky Star quilt

Fabric line is Happy Go Lucky by Bonnie and Camille. The pattern is called The Stars in Mama's Kitchen by Darlene Zimmerman, free pattern is here.

The quilt measures 72"x72". I add more blocks than original pattern :))



I did some cross hatching in the middle and some stippling FMQ on the borders.


And a couple of Lacy Waves Ponchos





I bought this pattern a few years ago and have knitted many of them. When I feel I need to finish something quick after knitting some lacy shawls using 2ply yarn using 2.75mm needle with a thousand something yards of yarn, I always go back to this poncho. So quick to knit. This poncho is knitted using 80%Bamboo 20%Marino Wool on 8mm circular needles :)

  1. Your quilt is beautiful and the ponchos are absolutely gorgeous! I wished I lived nearby so you could teach me to knit those ponchos.

    1. HSTs are 2 1/2" square unfinished. I thought about not adding that border but I'm glad I pieced them all. They're so cute :)
