Rock N Roll Hall of Fame

Been watching VH1 - the 2007 Rock n Roll Hall of Fame concert today. I love REM and Eddie Vedder (on right now). I really do need to give them more air time on my Ipod. I am originally from Cleveland and visited the museum a few years ago. If any of you get a chance - do go. You sit on the carpet of this huge room where they present video of past year's winners. Its really a lot of fun and brings back lots of memories. I grew up with 3 older sisters so I lived thru so much - one sister's first husband was in the army with Elvis, another was a big Johnny Ray fan! For me it was the Beatles (I saw them live in Cleveland in 63 or was is 64?). I always wanted George since everyone wanted Paul - so I figured I had a good chance with George. Sigh..

To get back on topic - I slogged thru the pattern on sleeve 1! The rest is almost solid colors so shouldn't take long. Here is my progress:



Around this time - I start thinking about my next project. When this is done (I feel like I have been doing this one forever - I know - it seems like that to everyone else too) .. if I don't do one of the Victorian lace today shawls - I'm going to start this:


Isn't it pretty? I splurged with the Tilli Thomas yarns in parchment (beige). They are shiny and gorgeous.

And I don't want to show a photo but we had a sewing room disaster last night. All my effort to organize my yarn in stackable cubes came tumbling down. Sigh. I'll get it reassembled but for now the yarn is all in piles. Sigh.

have a good week. A/C is the word!
