    Hello all!
    I love all the padded coat hangers, they are really lovely! I've been busy trying to make a couple of things for my children. First I finished a hair band holder made out of ribbon for my daughter, I really love how this turned out. Second I've been trying to finish a taggy blanket for my son but so far he won't give me enough time to finish it! Hopefully get it finished soon.

    Crafting love to you all!

    Mortgage-free Glee! Debt-free and Proud! Hung up my suit!
    I'm more crochet and knitting but last year made myself make1 hat fro a premature baby any time I bought more wool! Think I need to make it 1 hat for every ball:) now as I still bar. Also not too keen on sewing so could do with finding someone who will sew up my finished projects. Currently have a dog,dress,2 cardigans and a jumper ready for sewing.

    Finished my gorjuss craft room sign and I have to say I love it. It makes me happy to think I've used bits and bobs which I have had lying around for ages and not had to spend any extra money to complete it.


    I also managed to decorate 12 notepads yesterday as well so I can declare another 13 makes towards my total - my total completed figure is moving (albeit very slowly) to the target figure. :)


    It also means that I have completed my 1 a day whilst the hubby's away challenge of 18 items as I now have made a total of 20 items since he went on Saturday. However as he is not back until the 2nd April ( 13 days away) I think I will still try and make at least another 13 things before he returns:)

    I went to Manchester with my sons yesterday, my eldest had told me about a wool shop he walks past every morning so I had a quick look but didnt buy anything.
    They waited outside and looked surprised when I came out empty handed but I know if I had started picking things up I wouldn't wanted to stop.
    I hope you are all proud of me ;)

    Finished another tea towel.
    Have a moral question - the family member that I am giving this to - is shall we say - more than a tad slap dash in their washing/housework. I want to treat all family members the same - ie - give them a stitchery tea towel. Am I being really mean - giving a lesser quality tea towel to the one who I know will mess it up? I plan to give them 2 tea towels instead of the one of top quality.
