long weekend, short work week...

...the three day weekend was great! And since I'm only working Tuesday and Wednesday because of Stitches West, I have a short work week. (Yay!)

So, first the shorter list: what I didn't do.

• I didn't knit much more than a couple of rows on the Lenore socks.
• I didn't spin anything.

What I did do:

• Finished all of the fiddly little sections on the needlepoint seahorses and worked on the blue background.
  
  
  
  
  
  
• Started quilting "The Wright Stuff." I did stitch-in-the-ditch between all the quilt blocks, and am working on the quilting mid-block. It is hard work pushing the fabric through the machine, so my shoulders and arms tire easily. But it's a start!
  
  
  
  
  
  
• Did my homework for my class on Friday.
• While searching for stash yarn for my class homework, I found some yarn that I had forgotten about. I photographed it and put it in my stash list on Ravelry. (It's also in my stash set in Flickr.)
• Plotted out my course for the Stitches market preview.
  
• Made a new Knit2 Bag out of "Knitmare on Elm Street" fabric. I'm using this bag to hold the sock yarn I'll use in my class on Friday.

• Did a little more reorganization in the craft room. Nothing that is really visible...I really just shifted some things around to make it easier to access.
• Enjoyed the spring-like weather and took some pictures of the things in bloom.

Between now and Thursday, I need to finalize my shopping list and print out the final inventory list of yarn and roving so I can avoid duplicates. Then I'll be completely set...I can't wait!
