There were a couple of hats and a pair of fingerless gloves:
I also finished this. It was one of my great-aunt's UFOs that I inherited. I've been working on getting it completed for years and it was one of the UFOs I'd hope to get completed last year. There were 120 blocks originally. I sewed them into block of 4 then seamed them. I see why it she didn't finish it. The thread was from several dye lots, but now that it's completed it's not that bad. The only regret I have is that I don't have enough thread to do a border, When I can get out and about I'll look, but for now, I'm calling it done. I'm going to use it as a topper in the guest room, but it could also be used as a tablecloth. If I decorated for spring, I'd use it with white placemats and my thrifted green luncheon dishes.

And that's it folks! Until I gathered items for these posts, I didn't realize I'd gotten so much accomplished. No wonder I was so exhausted! Of course I've got lots more on the needles and hooks. The machine will have to wait until I can negotiate the steps.
If you're going to Maryland Sheep and Wool, have fun! Be sure and post to your blogs so I can enjoy it vicariously.

Those hat ensembles are so chic!
Good for you finishing that UFO. I hope someone does that for me one day. I'm leaving plenty behind.
I am sitting here with a very bad case of the MDSW blues. This is the second year in a row that I'm going to have a rush, rush trip in order to say at least I got there-if only for a few hours. I really need to learn to say NO-and mean it. The first weekend in May is MINE. :(
