I hope everybody had a lovely Friday night, both FNSIers and non-FNSIers alike!
Last night I worked on the next block in the Underground Railroad quilt, our 'homework' block for this month, Basket -
and I also started some knitting, a new winter scarf. I loved this wool when I saw it in the shop, but am not sure I like it knitted up, at least not in this pattern. I might try just a plain 2x2 rib and see how that looks....
One of my OPAM finishes for March was a pair of fingerless gloves which I made for my niece. I had not shown them before now as I had not given them to her.... but I still haven't caught up with her to pass them on, so here they are. She loves the minions from Despicable Me (even though she is 22!), so minions they are!
Today I am off to our Mill Rosie Friends group at Mill Rose Cottage, Ballan, for lots of fun, probably not a lot of sewing, and a delicious lunch. It is always a lovely day with much hilarity, and as I have missed the last two, am really looking forward to it. Hopefully, I will remember to take some photos!
Have a lovely weekend

love your latest block and those minion gloves are gorgeous. I love the minions too and I am a little older than your niece.... Had one on my desk at work that laughed when you pushed his belly. Very pretty wool for your new scarf.

Those gloves are gorgeous and suprising how many older people love the Minions
