The Suffolk Puff/Yo-Yo Squares Are Done!

My apologies for the rubbish photos. It's difficult to get a good shot at 7:15 am in Winter.

Squares 93-100 Photo #2

Squares 93-100 Photo #1

This means that I've sewn all 100 squares and have just got to sew all the squares together into the finished coverlet by August 18th (the 19th being the wedding). I'd like to take it slow and do one row per day but I think I might try for two because I just want to get it finished at this stage!

I seriously have to get back to working on the knitwiki, adding more embroidery patterns and all the stuff that needed to be finished, plus I need to get started with adding the singercraft, teneriffe lace and tatting sections. I bought four vintage tatting booklets last week that will make up the tatting section, along with a booklet that I already have (but need to find), and then I need to start work on the weavettes multicolour and texture investigations, and work with the butterfly looms.

Among other things.

Hmmm, it seems like the suffolk puff coverlet has been a nice break rather than a huge rushed project, doesn't it?

The next time I post a photo of it, it will be finished!

I can't wait to see it finished! Like I have said before, I couldn't do it. I can't balance the colour my brain doesn't work that way. Looks gorgeous!

I am completely impressed!

It's an amazing piecework accomplishment and I'd never ever in a million years have the patience...but it is going to be so much more than the sum of its parts.
