Get your clever phones out!

Not sure whether this works or not - but it should direct you to my web site! If it doesn't it's back to the drawing board!

The vegetable plot!  Not at all like the gunpowder plot.

August already!


No blog posts for a while, but I haven't been idle.....




A few little paper flowers - I put glitter on one later and it looks FAB
Here is my latest wooden project.....

...... which was interrupted by Tinkerbell flicking this out from under a planter - poor little toad.  Well, I say 'little' he was ENORMOUS!

And here is my wooden project, its a raised vegetable garden.  Next time its stops raining I'll take a photo of it in situ with, hopefully, some seeds germinating.
My mum liked this wool so much - I made her a cushion with it.

A little knitting at the Bankfield Museum - there is a great exhibition there of a knitted garden.  We also knitted a little sheep, but the lady running the workshop didn't have stuffing or wool sewing needles.  He's still in pieces in my bag, but I did finish this flower.

My meercat is on the right - he's waiting at the bar for some clothes!
I didn't make this, but it is the first Thornton scarecrow I have seen.
Mini book - they were making these on Sunday Scrappers at the weekend.....

and another one....

and another.....

ditto!
Now this is exactly what it looks like!

And two make a pair.  They are educational aids for our student health visitor who qualified this week.  Pattern on Ravelry.
101 uses for a Joanne's bag........
A little crochet practice...

a friend found a link to a tutorial on these crochet celtic knots

and they are just so addictive.  They  measure 3 inches square.
And this one measures 9 inches square - using very very thick yarn.  I am going to felt it at a later date...
