Such a busy bee!

Once I started this wavy crochet blanket I couldn't stop!!
Its for one of the cane chairs in my house in Essex. I absolutely love it and have been madly crocheting most evenings.
And I have stitched quite a bit of my ABC too,  I took this with me to stitch when I went to the Get Together of the Sampler's Guild group on Canvey Island. It was just 17 miles from my house and near where I used to work. The very tiny bit of stitching which is a corner of the next set of letters  is all I did there the whole day!!! We just chatted and laughed and it was a wonderful day. This group meets weekly so I shall certainly join them once we are there permanently.
And my Golden Gate Houses has had a little bit of  the back stitching done but not a lot, been too busy doing other things, I need more hours in the day!
And here is my Round Robin back. Its been to various places in England and to America and doesn't it look great. I am going to put a title on it and everyones names and then frame it.
So a very big thank you to Clare, Lynn, Jaclyn, Dusty and Tina. I love it!
I am off tomorrow to the Stitch and Stash Get Together at Nuneaton so I wonder will I get more done than I did at Canvey!
Hope you all have some thing nice to look forward to at the weekend too!

I love your ripple too... You know, I'm having a hard time managing to crochet. I know a few os the basic stitches already and YouTube is really helpful, but it seems like I just can't control the tension of the material.
I bought both wool and thread and both are complicated to manage. I'm getting frustrated and upset. But lets try a bit more before giving up for the 11th time in my life, right? =(
So jealous on yor progress...
