Too Much Cuteness.
I just had to finish off that koala I was knitting. But it didn’t stop with one. A bit like eating potato chips. So I ended up with three. They are lovely to make – a little bit fiddly, but worth it. The hardest part was the faces and I am sure that they will […]
A Bit Of A Yarn.
Plenty of yarn being used in these projects. It’s a bit of a mixed bag. I have been making a few bits and pieces for gifts and have accumulated a little collection. Most will be baby gifts. I am sure most of you have seen the octopus toy with the curly tentacles that bubs love […]
Triangles Abound.
It is time for me to get a few quilts finished. Quite a few tops are done but of course they need sandwiching and quilting. I decided to start with the biggest one first. This one ended up at 65 X 86 (inches). It is made from half square triangles made from a range of […]
A Little Crochet Project.
Sometimes it is good to have a yarn project on the go as well as stitching ones. This is a lap size crochet project that I have been working on when watch TV. I can’t seem to watch TV without having something like this on the go. This has used the African flowers design in […]
Just Keep Going.
We are in lock down still. Apparently we hit 200 days of cumulative lock down since the start of the pandemic last year. So it really is a case of just keep going. So I did. I finished putting together a quilt top that I had started last year. I had done two of the […]
Moving Along To August.
It has been cold, wet and miserable here – but it is Winter! But out of the blue we have had two lovely, sunny days. Not warm, but appreciated. And I think it turns back to Winter normal tomorrow. So obviously lots of inside time. Sewing has been done but with the Olympics in the […]
A Finish For Round The Garden Path.
Finally after many months, maybe years, I have finished the embroideries and quilting for Round The Garden Path, a design by Fig,N,Berry. Once the embroideries were complete and the blocks put together, I had a good play with the quilting. Each of the eight outer blocks were quilted in a similar way. I was able […]
Keeping Warm.
Lots of chilly mornings here but we are getting lovely sunshine during the day. All the heating systems are working overtime at night keeping us snug and warm. Perfect weather for these little frosties which are stitched from designs made by Michelle from Michelle Ridgway Designs. These are stitched from Cottage Garden Threads. I plan […]
The Halfway Mark For 2021.
Surprising to think that we are already half way through 2021. Maybe I have been busier than I thought. Although not sure my stitching shows that. We are having some lovely sunny Winter days. Still very cold but great to see the sun shining. After having little opportunity to sew for a month or more, […]
Welcome To Winter.
Brrrr…. . Winter has arrived here. Cold, wet and windy. Good time to stay inside where it is warm and dry. I have been working on my blocks for the Wendy Williams quilt, Over the Hill. Two more blocks have been added. These two blocks are part of the centre row. There are lots of […]
