You are one talented and ambitious lady! Beautiful work. I love the table covers. My SIL made those dishcloths this summer and gave me 2...they work great!

Beautiful work, Zeee. BTW, what kind of yarn do you use for the dishcloths. I got
some of those for Christmas (ding! ding! ding!) and I my hazy recollections are that
they were made from cotton yarn of some kind.

Thanks all...but I have to tell you I felt like I was on an assembly line... these Italians keep multiplying I can't keep up with them... I talk to myself every time I start another blanket... and I remember the days I did booties and hats and sweaters..holy cow..no more ...Blankets is it... oh but I have to tell ya, I did a christening outfit...omg...that was a lot of work...the old fashion type too... long and long ..never again...but I was in tears when my niece told me on the day of her wedding... "Aunt Zeee, that outfit you made for me on my Christening Day... my first child will wear it too....Now that made me get a lump in my throat.... those are the kind of things that do ya in...
Janice.. I use the cotton thread called Peaches and Cream.. it's the best for dish coths..and you know I always make a dozen up and give them as gifts for bridal showers.. there is no better way of doing dishes..(if ya gotta ).. no sponges for me...no sireee !..
Marslet.. Nope I got a Memory card reader instead... although that Laptop is still lookin good and Santa will be here on Dec 19th..
so ya never know..but only thing.. I would have to buy Microsoft office..and that sucks... cost more than the deal on the computer. 
Liz, I think dish cloths came back in the fad cause as I was buying yarn..the lady asked me about a pattern for them.. shoot I've been making these for years I just recited it too her... I think I impress her..hahahaha...
Ok, now it's time for lunch ...just got back from Sam's club..ouch..
God Bless
Zeee
Reading camera PDF file while I gobble...LOL

For my part I love the very first blanket. The one with the ruffle all the way around it. Beautiful!!!
Haven't crocheted in years and years. Have never learned to knit. Heaven only knows if I would have the patience for that!!! The last thing I crocheted was a granny square afghan for my parents in colors of orange, rust, verigated green and a chocolate brown. Took me forever to get it done. I would get so fed up and frustrated with it I would have to bundle it up and hide it out of my sight!!!
Who ever gets that first blanket is gonna be ecstatic.

I'm guessing that all the articles are crocheted? My sister was a wiz at doing that. She'd use thread (?) that looked like thin kite string and did the most beautiful doilies! Oh, my aching eyes if I tried that! I did try crocheting a potholder once. It came out as a triangle no matter what I did, and I gave up!
Beautiful work, Zeee. Thanks for sharing.

beautiful work Zee, and those dish clothes are wonderful, I make them too and also
in different sizes to use as pot holders and placemats so I don't scorch the table with
extra hot stuff from the microwave. The cotton yarn, yes, Peaches and Cream but
I also found another brand but can't remember what its called, I'll have to look again
when I go get yarn in the very near future.
