    Thanks @plumduff55. I hope you have the most wonderful day today. I cant wait to see all of your purchases. I wouldnt mind betting that just a little bit of wool might slip into your basket. 

    I dont know what the wool was called as it had a blank label round it. It felt like part wool as I made it up but cant be sure. I am always amazed at how multi coloirs like that come out as pretty stripes no matter what size the make is.

    Enjoy your day.

    A friend gave me a tunic top that she had been gifted. It was too big for her and me but I have taken it in today and have a new top. Really good quality material too. Whilst the sewimg machine is out, I have mended 2 pillows and cut out a new peg bag using my old one as a pattern. So I am adding 3 so far. Wont add peg bag until it is completed.

     Cute bunnies, love their little tails.
     Sumptuous colour tunic.
     You are right,I could do some baby makes in white. It's my reluctance because pregnancy hasn't been plain sailing for them.Dil  can do no crafts but she appreciates anything handmade.
     I am still fighting with the curtains.

    Soontobeoap - I found a pattern on Pinteres. I varied it a bit to put my own spin on.
    I had planned to craft today but it didn't happen.
