It's still winter

Like this blogtitle says, it's still winter here and yet my cowl and shawl aren't finished. Oh well, there will be plenty of winters after this one LOL
I have been mainly stitching on VHRH.


I want to finish this one this year and with six blocks to go that means I have to do at least one block in two months. That doesn't seem too much, but with other activities as work, quilting, knitting, it means that I have to hold on to this schedule.
Block seven is coming to an end. I hope I can show the finish next week.

There's only one obstacle, I am going to follow classes from Ted Storm. Three days of fun with friends, paying attention, doing applique (homework included!) and learning all the ins and outs of applique needlework! I will be staying at a dear friend's these days, leaving DH and the children to their own ;)
I am starting off with these FQ's. At the end of the week I'll show the result of three days with Ted ;)

As for my capelet, the crocheting part is done, so I am knitting .... and knitting ... and knitting.

I also try to add at least one square to Expectation and until now I succeed. I don't take it with me these days, so no progress next week, I suppose! To be able to take this picture I had to lay it down in a bow. In fact it is twice as long.
