Anne's Flower Hat and Mittens

I have finally finished the last mitten for Anne's Flower. This set is a keeper for me, I am ready for fall! The beautiful pattern is made by Wenche, and can be purchased at Ravelry, link can be found here. I used Juvel yarn and knitting needles 2,5 mm.

I did show some of my quilts at a local show, but my camera did not work, so here is a bad picture from my cellPhone

My son was the quilt guard.

I am blessed with a beautiful view from my kitchen. The babies are so adorable, are they not?
