Week 2 of July

This month seems to be going by in a flash. Perhaps I have just been occupying my time elsewhere (instead of on the assignments that I should be working on).

My O.W.L. is coming along nicely. It will absolutely be done on time, no ifs ands or buts about it. I have been trying to come up with a spell that will tie in 10 or so ends on each of my 88 squares. Unfortunately, I have been unsuccessful in my pursuits. The border color just needs to be added to 11 squares and then the daunting task of weaving in the ends... and then assembling all of the squares into an afghan! Where's a house elf when you need one? I can't believe how much yarn the border has taken, 5 skeins!!! But then again, the squares did take 16 skeins. Oh so much yarn.

In excess of doing my O.W.L. I have to make baby items because my twin cousins' wives are both pregnant at the same time and are having their shower at the beginning of the coming month! Unfortunately my mum is not too handy with the hook or needles, so the crafting is left to me.

I guess I better get working on my coursework as well as getting this afghan put together as soon as possible so that I can get cracking on the baby items.
