I love the way it looks and it really livens up my office. Happy dance!
As for my weekend, let's just say I was motivated to finish the quilt and didn't really work on anything else. I did do a little stash diving and found the things I need for Ravelympics: two red rovings for the Flying Camel Spin plus the warp and weft yarn for Labyrinth Weaving.
I also set aside a bunch of novelty (some eyelash, some tape/ribbon, some furry) and sock yarns (mostly Lion Brand Magic Stripes) to destash. Not quite sure what to do with the destash items yet...they could go to charity or I could gift them to someone who wants them. Any takers?
