2021 - No Craft Spending - I WILL bust my stash and make pretty things!!!!

emsi_b

1 card, 1 pair of PJ bottoms and 3 masks to declare. Perhaps more I've forgotten about, but they can be lost to the mists of time 😂
I have part made a bib, and have another cut out, and 2 more to make- more babies on the way to make gifts for. Both boys too, so I will use my stash of boy fabric to make things- the trouser pattern I used for the PJs is great, so will do some funky prints with that.
We have decided we want to move house, but the craft stash needs slimming before then... 😬 lots to get made or finished off!! Some of the UFOs will go to the new babies, and I might even sell some of the fabric I've bought, not sure yet. Depends how much is left when we the house is renovated enough to sell!
Total: 31/75

 Snap! We have an Estate Agent coming on Monday. Two people we know have sold their houses in the village within 3 days. If we don't sell within about a month it will be too late to take advantage of the tax break for the buyer. I have had the house valued a few years ago and it was 260 k . The agent said it was an awkward price as being just over the stamp duty threshold puts people off. I expect the valuation to be a little more now. We will see on Monday.

 Emsi don't sell your stash if you like it. Pack it all into banana boxes. Use as much as you can beforehand. When we moved previously I got rid of stuff which I now regret and have had to buy again.

Still knitting the blanket. I think I will give it to my Nephew's wife anyway. She can give it away if she doesn't like it.

That will be a big space created Vulpix! I have nothing to report, I have been working or making the most of the sunny weather the last week or so. It's been so lovely! I need to get the extension cable out and move my sewing machine to the patio 😂

 Just popping in to say Hi. We have sold the house,it is all going very quickly so I haven't done much crafting as I have been too busy. I have half knitted a baby cardigan and done some mending and that's it.

72 / 250. 

Not much really but I have unpicked the school emblem from my nieces school skirt that she never wore. It’s a nice black skirt that’s a decent length and made with weighty fabric. Seemed a shame for it to go to waste. It barely counts. But I’m thrilled as I have a black skirt that needs a new zip and this is sooooo much quicker. 

Hope you’re all well.

 The lady from the charity brought me a massive bag of wool yesterday. I have almost finished knitting two baby jumpers. (not since yesterday) I like the knitting ,just hate doing the neck band. I was just about to plan sewing another quilt but feel I need to keep knitting for the charity. Nothing finished so
