Birthdays And Bertie.
Posted on | April 26, 2016 | 15 Comments
The second Bertie block has been completed and I have prepared the third, ready for stitching.
I am enjoying working with the wool and it has also made me realise where the gaps are in my stash. That’s a good thing because now I can focus on the colours and patterns I need rather that random buying.
Our run of birthdays for grandchildren continues. Our youngest turns one this week but we all caught up over the weekend to celebrate. I enjoy having the opportunity to make these fun items for our grandies.
There was a fox theme going on with the cushion that I made and a knitted softie.
There was a lot of knitting happening with a knitted hat next.
And then some knitted fruit!
Adding to the food theme, some felt fruit and veg.
There are a few quiet months and then we have another birthday rush in August and September.
That may give me a chance to get back to some quilting.
I hope your week has started well.
Cheers, Karen

You are a very talented gal! Your Bertie block is beautiful, and the foxes adorable. Your knitting is superb!
Happy birthday to your little one. Love the foxy theme. Bertie is such a lovely pattern.
Finally, a few minutes to catch up with your lovely work. You are so eclectic in your talents….wool work, knitting, crocheting AND quilting….WOW. I know that you are looking forward to having your family with you in Aussie!!!
the wools are great aren’t they…. I think I recognise a few – let me know if you need more …
The food is fun – and low calorie!!

Totally awesome …. Love the banana❣❣❣
Karen you are always doing something lovely. The grandies keep you busy. The Bertie block is absolutely gorgeous
Goodness, you have been busy Karen! Love the fruit and vegetables, both knitted and felt! And your wool project is coming along so well! There is something very satisfying about blanket stitch. I used it when I added feet to my blue wren yesterday.
I love the fox theme, it seems to really be in style now. I’ve seen heaps of different items in this theme….and I love it, so cute. The colour you’ve knitted the beanie in is sweet and your block is gorgeous. Looks like you’ve been keeping out of mischief. lol
Heaps of fun sewing, Karen!! Your Bertie’s block is so cute, as well as your knitted and felt projects. And good to have a valid excuse to do some stash building :-)
How cute! You are just having too much fun with all those birthday presents!
