I know her makes are fab! I am currently on my 3rd blanket! The 2nd was lots of granny squares stitched together and this one is going to be my big crochet project but i am in two mind! Not sure if i should do a animal theme blanket or a cars one! Guess which pattern is the easiest! LOL! Any more recent makes jcr16? x

as promised my handmade pressies for my eldests two teachers and assistants pressies.

















they are all now wrapped in co-ordinating tissue paper and inside a little voile bag, all ready to go in the morning.

I have been making some other bits, i finished a crochet blanket , done loads more to my dd. and bought some more wool for next baby one which matches my pram really well. i'll post those pics later . i've also been doing some odd sewing jobs round house like taking up curtains etc which i've needed to do but not go round to.

I'm having a huge blitz on house at the mo, and seem to be making more mess as i'm going, but once i'm straight again i'lll get back into the crafting, hopefully i'll be straight before the baby arrives in 28 days.

Hope you all like the pictures.

my latest addition, not so much a craft make but more a revamp.



i bought the dresser last april for a few £, and had every intention of painting it. never got round to it. then on thursday i thought i'm doingit. Eldest 2 children were at eco warriors youngest was soundo so off i went. i spent under £20 and an afternnon of work and the results are as above. i love it. Now need to find another one so we can get rid of the units we have in the dining room and use these instead.

jcr - brilliant :T

Well, I've got my finger out and started -well sort of. Knitting a scarf for my son -using two balls of wall together, brown and beige, to make it a bit more interesting and just made a button necklace in reds and creams -trying to make it look ''festive''..........lol
Must delve into spare room when cleaner comes and see what I've got that needs doing things to before it becomes a pressie of sorts.
I've got a box I keep meaning to cover for 'new years resolutions' for sons girlfriend..........maybe do one for him as well.
So I'm getting there............felt still in the box waiting for be to make some hearts...........:)

not done much crafting lately as i've been blitzing , throwing , sorting and re-arranging whole house. all for one tiny little baby,lol.

anyway i've finished my 2nd crochet blanket for baby which matches his pram perfectly.



and i've made a mini taggies blanket, one side ( the side showing) is felt and the other is a soft polka dot fleece. aahhh it so soft, i want it.


next mission i am going to try to make some sort of toy entertainment dangly thingy for the car seat. but not sure yet what to do, so i'm just reasearching and looking for ideas.
