Hurray! I've finished my first project. The bunting for my nieces birthday is done - just in time for her birthday on Monday. Going to make her a card - again from my stash. Then onto the next project ....

Well done, kat. It's a great feeling to get something finished - and to use up some stuff.

One more birthday card done. Hunkydory is a great "go to". The kits seem to be never ending too!

This should be the last of August's cards. I have none planned for September, so I hope I'll get cracking on Christmas again.

Nothing completed here however I have been quietly crocheting away and I am close to finishing my shawl I had a bit of a panic when I couldn't find the balls of yarn that I had set aside for it but they turned up at the bottom of a pile of yarn I had forgotten all about

Once that is finished I will need to decide on my next project based on the stash that I have, hmmmmm decisions decisions!

I love the card agree tiger. I tried a hunky dory pack last Christmas and, as you say it seems unending. I finished second project yesterday - a knitted t- shirt for myself - very happy with it. Hope to finish boys tank top today.

Boys tank top complete - knitted scarf on go now - this will take a little while. How is everyone doing? It's been quiet on this thread for a while - have I missed something?

Well done to everyone on the stash busting. I've been busy clearing fabric stash by sewing clothes....maybe I'll get another card done tomorrow.

I found myself browsing online stores for watercolours after seeing *Jellie's* card on the other thread but talked myself out of buying any. Will have to wait for Santa:rotfl:

I have added some more things here and have figured out how to add a signature so have updated that accordingly.

Well done on resisting temptation!! I read a blog by Alisa Burke (love her painting). She thinks that you can do a decent job with cheap watercolours like crayola so when it gets to Christmas maybe a cheap set is the way to go!

Well done on the finished projects

Things have been quiet on the crafting front the last few days as my arm has been aching when I try and crochet so I am sensibly giving myself a break for a few days. It is so frustrating and I have loads that I want to do.

*Jellie*

Rummer- hope it stops aching soon.

I didn't get round to a card today- still sewing!

Glad to see people are still beavering away.

I got another 2 Morsbags done today. And I fixed the hem on my trousers - didn't count this even although I used up some thread, lol.

I have to confess to buying some wool and some glass beads - will have a go at making a beaded scarf (2 if all goes well with the first one, lol).

And I spent £20 on a groupon voucher which gets me £40 of fabric - just need to get into Glasgow to use it now! I had been going to ignore it but my daughter sent me an email about it too, and I am so weak willed ....

Changed my target to 300 things now. Does that make up for my weak will?
