One has to alas get out the boat and row over to Skins's island to see the pictures at this bonfire; but it does show a real live primitive in her natural state.

2. Is that knit or crochet?
   
It's impressive either way. I knit but I have a very short attention span so all I can do it gloves and hats and small sweaters from really bulky yarn lol.

Worsted weight or smaller? I can't tell from the picture.

10. Nice!
   
Great scrap-yarn project. Those look like -- what? -- 7 inch grannies?

You should post it on a crochet site, like Crochet Cabana.

It's mostly compliments, but this expert eye here likes the crochet-work by Miss Mia and DixieDarling, and the quilts by Brown Eyes, a whole lot better.

I applaud the effort, because I know the amount of work involved, however, I'm not too fond of her color choices at all.   I'm with Frank...I prefer BEG's quilts!!

Very neat, I've never seen something that was a crochet and quilt at the same time.

It looks like a neat idea and at first glance I thought they were actually quilt patches (the colors) but now see it was also crochet...I think it looks nice, alot of work...
