Two books for this week:
I reviewed this very good read here.
&
I am loving this book.
It is so many things at once:
simple; beautiful; of the everyday and transforming it;
encouragement for all us 'small folk' who need
some heartening and a good dose of be courageous,
love deeply and God-loves-you and the Mother-of-God
and take heart and see beauty in your day,
no matter what day it is.
It's well written, has some real gems of encouragement in it,
should be loved by all who love poetry,
it makes me feel at once relaxed
and yet ready to face the next thing.
In other words,
the best book I could be reading while in a this
crazy were-moving-and-the-close-date-keeps-changing time.

So here's what I am making; blogged about it here already;
Ravelry here.

Bag I love and keep this in ... see Wanda at

I ran out of yellow while still having lots of blue…
so I made the squares into a cheery sun and
am now going to see about finishing the blanket
with the sun shining in the centre!
It's fun to just be creative
and see what will happen of it!

You are always so sweet to picture your bag and link to my shop! It warms my heart that you are enjoying it so much! I am reading Jennifer's book and really enjoying it. I am so fascinated at your knitting and how you will connect all those squares . This is going to be so pretty !!!
I am eager to see how your sunshine blanket turns out! Good for you for going with it and being creative. :)

Looking forward to seeing how the sunshine blanket turns out. Such a good idea.
How fun to just create the way you are doing! The yellow and blue are really cute together!
A cheerful sun will be perfect, I love improvising! Really allows for creativity to stretch its legs. That sounds like a good book. I'll light a candle for you for the upcoming tumult and stress. Peace be with you! xo
Love the sun idea. I hope you are able to share the finished project.
Your books look good and I can't wait to see how your blanket turns out:)
love the yellow squares, so cheerful and bright! I know the blanket will be beautiful!
A sun sounds like a lovely idea :-)
