...and Happy April!
First the eye candy. Some freesias...
Some blue flowers that the Husband planted in one of the hanging baskets...
the mystery bulb finally bloomed—what it is is still a mystery to me...

Last night I plied the Freestone Fireworks yarn while I watched TV.
Here's the close up.
Specs:
Started 3/26/11
Finished 3/31/11
Freestone Fireworks Merino-tencel top (4 oz) from Royale Hare
Spun and Navajo-plied on Lendrum DT Folding Wheel
154.5 yds, 13 WPI

Up this weekend: Tonight and tomorrow will be spent on prepping for and attending the company party. I've settled on using the cupcake idea and got some really cool things to use as decorations. (Gotta love gummy candy!) There are a couple of new-to-me techniques that I want to try tonight while I wait for some of the chocolate decorations to set up. It should be fun.
On Sunday, I'll plot out the design for Jane's wall hanging. I think I've settled on an idea there, too. Now I just need to draw the template and go for it. I think it's will be slightly different than she might have imagined. [(You'll like it, Jane...trust me!)
