Yes, even though I am still plugging along on my shawl, there's really no point in taking a picture of the progress I made this week. Unfortunately, it's been mainly knit a row, rip out three or four, knit another row, rip a few more. I don't know what's going on with it. Guess I'm not making the transition between socks and shawl too easy! At any rate, hopefully you get the picture (at least in your mind) that there is presently LESS shawl than there was a week ago when I snapped the picture. Sigh. Hopefully more later.
But, there is other needle progress to note. Last weekend I found some great GREAT plaid fabric ON SALE to make curtains for my office/guest room. Now, you have to understand, I bough this house three and a half years ago . . . and have been searching all this time for the perfect plaid. I had a picture in my mind - and finally found it. With one yard at remnant price and the whole thing 50% off!!! the total came to $8.41!!! HEE HEE and they say I can't shop!!!
So, over the weekend, I dragged out my quilting mat, circular cutter and straight edge and chopped out four panels. Tonite - further progress - I returned the mat, cutter, and straightedge to their spots, grabbed thread and bobbins, hauled the sewing machine out of the bathroom closet, and actually put the side seams in the panels. Tomorrow nite - the tops!
I'll take a picture once they are finished and hung.

Can't wait to see the curtains. I know you've been looking for the fabric forever.
