My Rainbow

Your rainbow is strongly shaded blue.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

What is says about you: You are a tranquil person. You appreciate friends who get along with one another. You share hobbies with friends and like trying to fit into their routines.

Find the colors of your rainbow at spacefem.com.


When I started my blog I had no idea what to call it so decided to name it after my favorite color but I liked alot of variations of blue so that is why it's called shades of blue and this quiz just proved to me that I'm a blue person

Typelyzer

Check yours out!
I just came upon this in another blog and it analyzes you blog and this is what it says about mine:

The entertaining and friendly type. They are especially attuned to pleasure and beauty and like to fill their surroundings with soft fabrics, bright colors and sweet smells. They live in the present moment and don´t like to plan ahead - they are always in risk of exhausting themselves.

The enjoy work that makes them able to help other people in a concrete and visible way. They tend to avoid conflicts and rarely initiate confrontation - qualities that can make it hard for them in management positions.

A learning project

I've been working right along on my UFO's and OPAM and today while reading my lists of blogs, a friend posted a new learning project that teaches how to choose colors for your projects. I've been pondering it all afternoon and finally gave in because in my mind that was cheaper than taking a class at the quilt shop. Thanks Sheila for the nudge.

Oops just found some new UFO's

I just found some more UFO's that I didn't remember I had but no problem. I finished the January project early so this will just fill in the time till I can start the Feburary one. We got another 5 inches of snow last night so I should be able to get alot done since I don't like driving on snow packed ice! Sorry I keep changing my backgrounds but I haven't found one I like yet.

January UFO finished

I was so excided today I got my sweater out to put it together and now it is all finished. Put the problem is I don't like the way it fits, it was suppose to be "A-line" but it isn't at all, I'm just so unhappy with it but I was only suppose to finish it not like it right? Maybe it will grow on me but right now I'm ready to rip it out and make something else.

UFO project

Hopefully hubby will get to return to work tomorrow, winter break is over and I'm ready to have my days back to what I want. I'm ready to start on putting my sweater together, it's been over a year since I got all the parts knitted but was trying too hard to get it together so I just put it away. I joined a group that has you work and complete a unfinished project and this is the number on my list that was chosen.
