Bunches Or Bouquets.
I have been working on using up left over fabric from particular collections. And I was inspired by Nancy’s ( Grace and Peace) use of a particular pattern, Honey Bouquet (Villa Rosa Designs). My aim was to use up left over fabric from Leesa Chandler. These are the three quilts I have made so far. […]
New And Old Collections.
I have a new little Easter collection – this delightful group of felt Easter eggs. These have all been made using designs from Needle Finery, Elegant eggs. They are all made from wool felt and appliqued with DMC. Just out of interest, does anyone know of the origins of the designs with the rabbit carrying […]
Little Things.
Our weather continues to cause a lot of problems. I think the only thing we have missed out on is snow, though we did have hail. But in the middle of it all, we had a gorgeous rainbow. And a gorgeous blue sky. We spotted this when out driving. I have been finishing off a […]
Keeping Warm And Busy.
I have been outside keeping busy in the garden. I have been covering some of the plants as there is a frost predicted for tonight. It may not keep the plants warm, but it should prevent frost damage. Even with gloves on, my fingers noticed the chill. I had a little celebration this week as […]
Small Things This Time.
These little faces have been watching me for a while and I think that was a way of reminding myself I had to get them, and their clothes, finished. They are a knit pattern from ak traditions. I have made some other patterns from them a long time ago, but found these and thought they […]
Lots Of New Starts.
Time to work out what to make next, so I have been trying out a few patterns to see if they are what I want. So, lots of new starts. I started with a test block using the Tula Pink pandas. It was a bit fiddly finding the right size to cut the centre block […]
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 […]
Half Way.
It is odd to think that in a couple of days we will be half way through 2020. Time flies regardless of the way the year is unfolding. That is the limit of my navel gazing. On to the craft projects! I am keeping on with my 2019 Gail Pan BOM. July is completed. Now […]
A Winter Finish.
The first day of June saw temperatures drop here so we really knew that Winter had arrived. Coats, hats, gloves and scarves all came out. So, on that basis it was timely that I had finished my crochet blanket. This is a pattern from Attic 24 called Sweet Pea. It is a very simple design […]
Easter Stitching.
Happy Easter! Regardless of what is happening in the world, the days still roll by and we reach special dates. I hope many children around the world get to have some fun celebrating Easter. I enjoyed using my Bertie’s Springtime as a backdrop for pictures today. This was a Bonnie Sullivan pattern. I realised I […]
