Sock monkey afternoon



This afternoon - after the breakfast cruise - I didn't feel like sewing on Gareth's quilt. So about 4 hours ago I started working on the Sock Monkey quilt (see above). I am happy to say I am done with it. It is small, like it will fit in a bassette or cradle or in a stroller. Also it is perfect for a toddler to carry. I made this for my friend Stephanie, whose baby is due 10/1. I think it is so cute. There is a sock monkey store down the street and I will also get the baby a Monkey!
We had a nice breakfast cruise. There were about 28 Corvettes & us (we have an XLR - which is Cadillac's Corvette). We drove for 1 ½ on back roads and interstate. I heard some people say they got up to 150. We didn't go that fast. We ended up at the Golden Corral. It was euchy like always, but whatever. We enjoy going on the ride, plus this morning was nice enough to put the top down.
Rowdy is feeling so much better he was out digging in the dirt today! The little girls are running around now, they are so cute. I have to find a way to get some pix of them. But they won't hold still.
I went to Vicki's yesterday and gave Sebastian some pictures - he made his own scrapbook page. It was so cute. Kylie is getting so big and getting hair and lots of teeth! She will be one in the end of November. I didn't feel good so I really only made a double page called Kylie's First Year.
Oh well, tomorrow it is back to work. I am so happy I like my work now. It makes Monday's easier. Hope you all are doing well. I will catch up on your blogs soon.
Peace - KB

I saw this monkey quilt in your flickr stuff and had to come check out your blog about it. Did you have a pattern, or just make it up yourself? It's just adorable...and along with an actual sock monkey? Perfect!
