Lots of Vintage Lovelies

Oh it was SO fun recieveing all the packages, opening them up and discovereing what lay inside! BUT it was also hard work sorting them all out. I piled them on the kitchen table and tried to remember who sent what and then redistributed them all. I appologise if you got some of your own back, or if you got multiples. A few people sent a lot of the same print and they got a few of them back as there were not enough people on the end for then to be shared around!. I hope you all recieve at least a little of something you love!



So what are you going to do with yours? A quilt perhaps? Small projects? or just save them and look at them every now and then! I think I will make a quilt with mine!



PS If I have 'short changed' you on your FQ's please let me know. I would hate to have messed it up!!

sorry...

Sorry...to all my readers for being away for so long. Yes it was one of those times where you say that 'life got on top of you'. I don't want to make excuses (but I am going to!) we have all been sick but are better now.

Also...

Sorry...to all the people taking part in the vintage sheet FQ swap. I am very late with it all but it is all sorted now and they are on their way. I just hope each of you get something that you love and that inspires you to create! Photos have been taken and a post is on it's way!

1. Sorry .... :(

New house, silly internet, and the sniffles...

Theses are the things keeping me from posting in here of late!

We are finally in our brand new house! When the internet gets sorted I will post some pics of our lovely new house!

So soonish expect this blog (and me!) to be up and running again. Until then, play nicely!

Persephones Tunic

Hooray! I finally finished! Not that it was a particularly hard or long knit it is just that I left it sitting there for too long. I do wish I had made the effort to finish the sleeves sooner as now it only just fits Miss I. I think she may have to wear it as often as possible until it truly won't fit anymore!

So here it is...Persephones Tunic!

I LOVE my new scarf! (and so does Miss E!)

I have recently recieved the most gorgeous scarf! I took part in the Australian Knitters 'We've got you covered' Swap on Ravelry. We each had to knit something for the other person that is a covering. Items ranged from beanies and scarfs to hot water bottle covers and tea cosies!

I opted to knit my swap partner, Andrew, a beanie and also included some other little goodies!In return I recieved this gorgeous scarf and other goodies (chocolates and one ball of yarn are missing already! They have gone to good use though!) from Shelly.

Miss E has taken a liking to my scarf too and this morning found her outside playing with my scarf around her neck!
