I finished the centre panel of this crochet and planned to crochet borders around it top make it bigger,
but I think I started with too many border stitches so it's becoming wiggly at the edges
So I asked my quality control assistant and she declared it finished - so there is a whole other ball of pinky orangy wool if anyone can think of a use for it
I bought a ball of very bright colour change wool and (because I am definitely running before I can walk) bullied both Tara and Lisa into starting me off on this spiral (A pattern?? What's that?) I'm totally guessing where to do two stitches on one hole, and although I've got further than this its too lose on some places and too tight in others - Lisa is coming over today so I'll get her to help me again!
I had a fab care package
from Plum a few weeks ago and very rudely didn't post it here: lovely goodies, thank you Plum xxx
The purple fabric was immediately put to good use to eek out the purple I had, to make two sets of bunting for two sisters
Finally the last of the posted quilts has arrived at its destination! Hello Theia - I hope you like it!!!
The Facebook Hexi swap has started up again, so we are swapping the back log: lovely to be getting hexies in the post - I have quite a stack of them so need to start thinking about what to do with them!
I've been doing some organising: felt scraps into baskets by size so I can have a chance of using up the smallest bits rather than keep cutting into large sheets
And the ribbons got sorted too (there are two card disks and a key ring split ring between each spool of ribbon so as I pull one only that one moves!
And I have been sewing squares together! The corners where the blocks meet are thicker than they should be - I'm not too great at trimming away excess fabric, and I'm cross with myself for not making another ten blocks to even up the pattern, but there isn't enough of that black left and I've fallen out of love with it so it can be finished and then go to Project Linus
Hope you are all keeping safe xxx
