Singles And Doubles.
The single refers to the hat I have knitted. It matches the jumper in my last post. Because the balls of wool from Bendigo are 200grams, I often find there is enough left over for a scarf or a hat. I am hoping to deliver the jumper and hat this evening when we go to […]
Lots Of Progress, But Only One Finish.
I often wonder if the Winter weather makes me take on projects that take a while to finish. Do I choose ones that are going to keep me inside where it is warm? Maybe I sub-consciously do. I have been keeping the needles working in the evenings to finish this jumper for Miss 10yo. She […]
Small Steps.
I have been keeping busy, but not necessarily achieving a lot of finishes. Lots of knitting and hand stitching being done, so slow progress there. But for a change of pace I decided to complete a few donation quilt requests. This way I can get some finishes and still keep working on the slow stitching. […]
Sea Creatures.
Sue Spargo put together a fabric bundle of sea creatures, coral and kelp in black, white and a tiny touch of blue. I bought a bundle with the plan to make a very simple quilt with the addition of some more blue. I have given up trying to avoid the wind when taking photos. Yes, […]
Neptune.
I think that is the name of the fabric in this quilt. I know I bought it quite some time ago, maybe 10 years? Not totally sure. I found a pattern designed for layer cakes, but also altered for charm packs. That was what I had in my pile and thankfully there was enough to […]
Paris Again.
Paris the fabric, not the city. Although I would enjoy being in Paris. I have been using the left over Dance in Paris fabric. I made another quilt over two years ago but still had a fair bit left from the fat quarter bundle. There was enough to make this quilt. It is called Fat […]
Welcome To Winter.
Brrr. It is a holiday weekend here as well as the first weekend of Winter. I think my holiday will be staying at home and keeping warm. My trees are still in Autumn, but with the winds we are having, I am sure the leaves will be gone very soon. My taxi driving requests are […]
Catching Up, Again!
I feel a bit like a stranger who has been gone too long. I know I have been busy, but hadn’t realised I had missed a whole month. Plenty of medical issues have kept me busy and none of them were mine. Lots of time has been spent in waiting rooms and next to hospital […]
Adding To The Collection.
I am getting towards the end of this burst of donation quilts. The collection is steadily growing. I will now get back to a few of my own quilts, which are waiting impatiently on the sidelines. This little lap quilt is made from leftover charm squares from the Sherbet Pips fabric line. I had to […]
A Little Catching Up.
I had set aside several projects prior to Christmas, but now I have decided they need finishing. First up, I completed the 4th, 5th and 6th of the Christmas decorations from Fig’n’Berry Creations. They are a delightful set. Here they are together. Next up, I need to move on with the centre block from my […]
