Mon premier log cabin, bien sur! Ca faisait un moment que j&apos;avais envie d&apos;essayer ce mod&#xe8;le si traditionnel, mais quand j&apos;ai vu cette variante plus moderne dans le livre de Marti Michell (disponible &lt;a href=&quot;http://lesouvragesdenat.surinternet.com/epages/box20259.sf/fr_FR/?ObjectPath=/Shops/box20259/Products/300-003&quot;&gt;ici&lt;/a&gt;), j&apos;ai craqu&#xe9;. C&apos;est un log cabin irr&#xe9;gulier, et de ce fait, il cr&#xe9;e l&apos;illusion de cercles. Ing&#xe9;nieux, non? Pour l&apos;instant, j&apos;ai assembl&#xe9; la partie log cabin, et l&#xe0; je r&#xe9;fl&#xe9;chis &#xe0; des possibilit&#xe9;s pour la bordure. A suivre donc!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&quot;Ca roule&quot; in French means, among other things, that something is going along as planned, with no hitches. So what&apos;s going well? My first log cabin quilt, of course! I&apos;d been wanting to try a log cabin for a while, but when I saw this more modern variation in Marti Michell&apos;s book (available &lt;a href=&quot;http://lesouvragesdenat.surinternet.com/epages/box20259.sf/fr_FR/?ObjectPath=/Shops/box20259/Products/300-003&quot;&gt;here &lt;/a&gt;in France), I knew I had to finally give in to temptation. It&apos;s an irregular log cabin, which means that it gives the illusion of circles. Ingenious, isn&apos;t it? To date, I&apos;ve assembled the actual log cabin part and am thinking about possiblities for the border. To be continued!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Et il ne lui va pas, mais alors pas DU TOUT! Que faire dans un cas pareil? Pour moi, je ne vois qu&apos;une seule solution: tout recommencer. Apr&#xe8;s tout, un pull qui reste dans le placard ne sert &#xe0; rien, n&apos;est-ce pas? Alors, depuis 4 jours, je d&#xe9;couds et d&#xe9;tricote. Et au fur et &#xe0; mesure, je fais tremper la laine &#xe9;cheveau par &#xe9;cheveau pour ensuite la suspendre avec un poids qui la fera se d&#xe9;tendre. Les poids, en l&apos;occurrence, sont des bo&#xee;tes de conserve enroul&#xe9;es dans des sacs en plastique, car, par manque de place, il me fallait des poids qui ne descendent pas plus bas que le bas de l&apos;&#xe9;cheveau! Il reste encore des &#xe9;cheveaux &#xe0; faire tremper et &#xe0; suspendre, mais &#xe7;a vient!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;The sweater I was knitting for my husband is finished! And it doesn&apos;t fit him AT ALL! What do you do in such a situation? I could only see one solution: start all over. After all, a sweater that sits unused in the closet isn&apos;t very useful, is it? So, for the last 4 days, I&apos;ve been unsewing seams and unknitting. And, as I progressed, I soaked the skeins and then hung them with weights to &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;straighten&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt; them. The weights in this case are cans wrapped in plastic bags since, lacking space, I needed weights that wouldn&apos;t hang below the bottom of the skein! I stll have some skeins to soak and hang, but I&apos;m getting there!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Il voulait un pull assez classique, alors j&apos;ai fait quelques recherches, et il a choisi &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.berroco.com/patterns/ben&quot;&gt;Ben&lt;/a&gt;. Voici des photos du d&#xe9;but.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Since I got back into knitting, I&apos;ve mainly made things for myself, but the time had come to think about my husband! He wanted a relatively classic sweater, so I went online looking for patterns, and he chose &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.berroco.com/patterns/ben&quot;&gt;Ben&lt;/a&gt;. Here are pictures of the beginning.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;I&apos;m stitching the binding to the back of Souvenirs de P&#xe9;kin now, a restful step in quilt-making. Like many quilters, I use the ladder stitch, which is almost invisible.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;First things first, my very best wishes for the new year: I hope it will be filled with both small and big sources of joy!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;En 2009, j&apos;ai commenc&#xe9; un quilt &#xe9;nooooorme (taille dict&#xe9;e par les d&#xe9;sirs de mon mari) que j&apos;ai assembl&#xe9; &#xe0; la machine mais que je projettais de quilter &#xe0; la main. Voux pouvez voir ses d&#xe9;buts &lt;a href=&quot;http://jillb.canalblog.com/archives/2009/11/29/15966793.html&quot;&gt;ici &lt;/a&gt;et &lt;a href=&quot;http://jillb.canalblog.com/archives/2009/12/06/16039962.html&quot;&gt;ici &lt;/a&gt;et &lt;a href=&quot;http://jillb.canalblog.com/archives/2010/05/06/17808515.html&quot;&gt;ici&lt;/a&gt;. Des soucis physiques m&apos;ont emp&#xea;ch&#xe9; de le terminer, et depuis plus de deux ans il languissait dans un placard puisque je ne peux plus quilter &#xe0; la main. Donc j&apos;ai r&#xe9;cemment pris la d&#xe9;cision de le finir &#xe0; la machine - apr&#xe8;s tout, &quot;fini&quot; est mieux que rien, non? Pour la petite histoire, il mesure 259cm de long sur 284cm de large. Voici quelques images du travail en cours.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;In 2009 I began a huuuuuge quilt (the size was my husband&apos;s idea) that I assembled by machine but that I planned to hand quilt. You can see its beginnings &lt;a href=&quot;http://jillb.canalblog.com/archives/2009/11/29/15966793.html&quot;&gt;here &lt;/a&gt;and &lt;a href=&quot;http://jillb.canalblog.com/archives/2009/12/06/16039962.html&quot;&gt;here &lt;/a&gt;and &lt;a href=&quot;http://jillb.canalblog.com/archives/2010/05/06/17808515.html&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. Some little physical problems have kept me from finishing it, and for more than two years it&apos;s been folded away in a closet because I can no longer handquilt. Recently, though, I decided to finish it by machine; after all, &quot;finished&quot; is better than nothing, right? For information, it measures 102&quot; long by 115&quot; wide. Here are a few pictures of it in progress.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

C&apos;est un fait, et je n&apos;y peux rien! Alors, quand j&apos;ai vu le joli &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.fr/Essentially-Feminine-Knits-Must-Have-Designs/dp/1596687843/ref=sr_1_1?s=english-books&amp;amp;ie=UTF8&amp;amp;qid=1355689820&amp;amp;sr=1-1&quot;&gt;mod&#xe8;le du gilet Lana&lt;/a&gt; et, surtout, quand j&apos;ai vu et touch&#xe9; la superbe laine &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.laine-et-tricot.com/p-57-eco.aspx&quot;&gt;Eco+ de chez Cascade&lt;/a&gt; en 100% laine, je n&apos;ai pas h&#xe9;sit&#xe9;. J&apos;ai utilis&#xe9; deux (&#xe9;nooooormes) pelotes, aiguilles 5 et 5,5, et le tout s&apos;est mont&#xe9; tr&#xe8;s tr&#xe8;s vite. Tout pour plaire!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;I get cold really easily. It&apos;s just the way I am, and there&apos;s nothing to be done about it! So when I saw the picture of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.fr/Essentially-Feminine-Knits-Must-Have-Designs/dp/1596687843/ref=sr_1_1?s=english-books&amp;amp;ie=UTF8&amp;amp;qid=1355689820&amp;amp;sr=1-1&quot;&gt;Lana cardigan&lt;/a&gt; and especially when I felt the gorgeous &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.laine-et-tricot.com/p-57-eco.aspx&quot;&gt;Cascade Eco+&lt;/a&gt; yarn (100% wool!), I didn&apos;t have to think very hard. I used two (huuuuuuge) skeins of yarn, needles size 5 and 5.5cm, and it all knitted up very quickly. What&apos;s not to love?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Apr&#xe8;s lavage et blocage (le lit dans la photo fait 160cm de large...!), / &lt;em&gt;Begun in September but interrupted several times for more urgent projects, I finished my &lt;a href=&quot;http://knitspot.com/knitting_pattern/twig-and-leaf-p-481.html&quot;&gt;Twig and Leaf&lt;/a&gt; shawl last week. After washing and blocking (the bed in the photo is a queen size...!),&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://storage.canalblog.com/96/93/576244/81414790_o.jpg&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; src=&quot;http://storage.canalblog.com/96/93/576244/81414790_p.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;2012-11-22 13&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;225&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;voici le r&#xe9;sultat final. Il mesure 53cm de large sur un modeste 272cm de long, et il aurait pu &#xea;tre plus long si j&apos;avais eu la place de l&apos;&#xe9;tirer davantage! /&lt;em&gt; here&apos;s the final result. It measures 21&quot; by a mere 107&quot; long, and it could have been longer still if I&apos;d had room to pull it out to its maximum!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
