    No picture, I did do it but not completely happy so I'll be unpicking again tomorrow and hopefully sewing it back in exactly the right place.

    Afternoon ladies,

    Some lovely makes. Sorry I've been missing for a while but real life has kind of taken over.
    I've been bobbing along doing my granny squares but got a bit fed up so have started making this th_38e46fedc4c46e78f527af7bc9e864b2_zpsade2c209.jpg

    It's a head band, just need to finish the length and then thread white satin ribbon down the middle and use it to tie at the back.
    You've guessed it, our baby bump is a little girl so our first granddaughter, already have a DGS. Very excited and feeling all Girly and pinkly inspired. Will pop back and update my list shortly

    Hope everyone is ok x
