Bits And Pieces.
When I saw these little slippers I couldn’t resist buying them. They only came in baby and toddler sizes. I would have loved to buy them for older children, too. I have been completing a few little stitcheries. The bird is from Teddlywinks, the tree is from Marg Low Designs and the star has completely […]
Knit, Purl etc.
Lots of little knitting has been happening here in the last week or two. Having to be in different places and doing a bit of waiting around lends itself to having an easy carry project like knitting. I have made several of these monkeys before from a Twins Knitting pattern. I have been playing with […]
Playing With Ribbons.
A few weeks back I was playing with this lovely bundle of ribbons. After a little cutting and stitching, they turned into this little wall hanging. Just in time for Christmas.
A Not So Nice Surprise.
After a wonderful month of family activities I had planned to return to my sewing and catch up on a lot of quilting. As you can see there are a lot of flimsies waiting in line to be sandwiched and quilted. Unfortunately these plans went astray due to the unpleasant surprise I mentioned. I ended […]
Out And About.
I have been lucky enough to have recently had eight days in a row that have involved crafty things. Several days were classes and another was joining friends for a sewing day. I had a day of art journalling and another working in a crafty capacity. But two busiest days were visiting the Craft and […]
Goodbye, January.
January has flown by quickly which probably means it has been a very busy month. Hard to believe tomorrow is a new month. I have continued to enjoy my Fernhill BOM from Lynette Anderson. Block 3 is done and I am working on number 4. It is an enjoyable stitchery and I have set no […]
A Busy Week.
November has arrived with a rush. Lots of busy things to do when the weather warms up here. We are starting to have a taste of the Summer to come. Some time has been set aside for sewing in amongst all the other goings on. Block 2 of Lynette Anderson’s Fernhill has been completed. Here […]
Starting a BOM.
I had seen several posts from people who were stitching Lynette Anderson’s mystery BOM, Fernhill. The first couple of blocks looked lovely so I decided to track it down and join in. Although 7 of the 9 blocks have already arrived, I am just finishing the first block which is the centre-piece. As usual, I […]
Little Stitching Finishes.
I have been enjoying working on some of Lynette Anderson’s small projects. The first one is a pin cushion made from the pattern, Garden Pincushions. I used a Cottage Garden Perle 12 thread called Oxalis for the stitching. This went together very quickly and is finished off with the gorgeous button that came with the […]
Snowflakes.
Snowflakes in September! I shouldn’t joke about that. The way our weather is here, anything is possible, even though it is Spring. My snowflakes refer to the felt ornaments I have been making. The first group are made using a mitten shape from one of the patterns from Rachel’s Of Greenfield. I have than added […]
