Well Thump Me On The Head!

I discovered, after doing 20 small blocks by appliqueing the sock down and then the heel an toe, that it's way easier to applique the heel and toe to the sock before putting it on the background. I spent all 3 show-n-tells and 6 hours in the car on the way home from RIM stitching the socks down and then the heel and toe. Sitting with Dan on Saturday night I tried it the other way and WOW, I sure do like it better.

WAKE UP

I wonder if Rebecca remembered to take her socks to RIM? How's everyone doing? You are all too quiet. Is that because you are so busy working on your socks?

My socks so far

Here's a pic of the ones I have done. The one's on the left were the first 3 I did and on the right are the 3 I finished last night.

Woohoo!

I have 1 sock completely done. One thing I have discovered with putting on the heels and toes is the my nails are getting in the way.....think I will have to have her shorten them next time I go in for a fill...

2 almost there

Last night while watching the rest of a baseball game I turned on my new lamp and sewed down 2 of my socks. That new light sure did make a huge difference!

Three more almost...........

I worked on these during American Idol last night. They still need toes and heels, but hey, it's a start.

Anyone Working On Socks?

I've found the little ones go quickly, I've got all of them prepped minus heels and toes.
