Weekly wrap
Posting a day early to celebrate the end of winter, and ready to start the And Sew We Craft crafty photo a day tomorrow, which I’ll be blogging weekly on a Sunday.

So, that cowl, hey? The one I’ve been working on for ages. That I frogged at least twice. That I was mega excited about? It doesn’t fit. Wonderful. It does, however, look fabulous on my 2 year old. It’s just the right pink for her colouring, and it fits. I think it was a combination of some dodgy tension, possibly […]
Slowly plodding along on this little embroidery I’ve had floating around for AAAGGGGGEEESSS! Makes a nice change from the knitting and crochet. (Original image by Pen & Paint). Feeling quite wordless today, lucky it’s Wednesday, hey? Off to sit in the sun and stitch some more and see if I can find my mojo again.

The silver lining of having sick small people, is I’ve managed to squeeze in more sewing time than I normally would be able to, and yesterday, just in time to start dinner, this little beauty was DONE. I am so happy with how it came out. There were […]
I made some great progress on my ripple while we were away, and am now around 1/3 of the way through. I’m loving how this is coming together! (linking up with And Sew We Craft, WIP Wednesday and Wordless Wednesday)
