After a gestation period longer than an elephant’s, I’m proud to announce the arrival of a Queen size blanket! 30 different squares with a seed stitch border! Squares are from a book called “60 Quick Knit Blanket Squares” from Cascade Yarns. #knit #knitsky

On Feb. 14th I try always to give honor to one of the greatest contributors to American democracy in our nation’s history, Frederick Douglass. Born into slavery, Douglass never knew his actual birthdate, and adopted Feb. 14th as the day. His penetrating insights about our country inspire me daily.

I just finished “colored television” and I like it a lot! It’s my first book by this author and it made me want to read her more. It’s a book that will stay with me and gave me a lot to think about. Have you read it? Thoughts? #coloredtelevision #danzysenna
