I don't know how many times I have undone parts of the baby cardigan! It is now finished but I think I will wash it as it has been so man handled.

Thanks for that Vulpix, might have a go at one later.

Over the last couple of days I have decorated and finished three more fiddle mats, and yesterday I made this bunting.  It's in rainbow colours to honour all the key workers that are keeping the country going.

Hope everyone is keeping safe and well
Total 75/100

Thank you Vulpix, I originally intended to do just 7 flags, one of each colour, for the front fence, but got a bit carried away!!

Chris,I am impressed that you had all the colours of the rainbow in your stash.I would have had to go and buy something missing and that would just add to the stash.I will just keep a tally of my makes now.It will be interesting to see what I do produce in a year.I always have a project on the go but I didn't realise how much I do.I will also only make things with supplies I already have.Also posting pics and posting my intentions keeps me on track.obviously excludes 3 kings!
I plan to spend the weekend gardening.

I'm afraid I'm a bit of a fabric hoarder too: I started collecting it when I first started holidaying in the US in 2001. Fabric is so cheap over there compared to here, and I just started buying yards and yards of it whenever I went to visit my relatives. I'd go with one case and come back with two!  

My intention was to make patchwork quilts, I've made a few but because I'm so slow, I've still got more fabric than I know what to do with!  I've decluttered it quite a few times, but still have loads.  Can't bear to part with any more though so I'll just use it up over the rest of my life!

Run out of blue and orange though for the rainbow bunting, so I'll have to improvise!

Currently crocheting a rainbow blanket: have 12 different colours for that too!
