Hi F1 tried the link but couldnt get the picture - also tried to paste the address to the search bar but unfortunately that didnt work either
Shezmit - parcel came today - will get them done asap
hugs to everyone

foerget that I pressed refresh and it came up. It looks really good - was it hard to do?

sheyo - i had to keep editing post until I got it right - sorry -

no it was not hard - it has to be easy for me to do ha ha - but even though it is easy it looks really lovely and like it should be complicated (if you know what I mean) and it seems to knit up quick

hope you get on alright if you try the pattern xxx

Jaqui, it's beautiful, thank you for sharing! Well done!!

It's been a miserable day here with the weather, and after a very quiet day at work and a quick blitz around the house when I got home, I'm determined to put my feet up and do some knitting/crochet this evening, ahhhh bliss!

Hope everyone is well, hugs for those who need them!

I can't do very much at the moment because of my M.E.
If I can help at all in any way, I am very pleased to do so
I love coming on here because it's so full of positivity,everyone is so friendly & caring, which in itself means so much when there are so many things in the world today that are negative.
Making the things for charity makes me feel that I am at least doing something worthwhile, as I have had to give up all the things I did before, even the knitting is too much now, which is why I started doing more crochet and I have to say I think I may even like it a little more than knitting :j :eek: :j :rotfl:
to mioliere once again for starting the thread :j:j:j

The couple who run our village post office had a baby boy on my birthday ( the date & sex both predicted by me & they were really surprised esp as he was a week overdue-typical male :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:)
So I am doing a crochet baby blanket, jacket, hat, booties etc for them at the moment ( in shades of blue of course ) which are nearly all done now, so I will be getting back to the charity things shortly
Hugs to all :A

hi, another question from me! I have done one baby bunting and am in the process of doing the second.

Should I sew the hood seam together now or are they better sent flat and sewn together on arrival??

p.s. I love the bunting design F1widow! Will give that one a try next.

Donna

shezmit

You can either send them flat but leave me a tail to sew up the hood

or

you can sew the hood together send it like that,

Well done on your first bunting,:T

DON79

Ok, thanks shezmit, can you pm me the details where to send them? I will wait til I have done a few more obviously. I also have some ribbon I can send if you would like it?? I bought it a while ago, there are two shades of pink and two shades of blue - one is a royal blue colour however so would that be ok?

shezmit

Pm you Donna, Thankyou so much

shezmit
