I somehow managed to put down the 8mm crochet hook and pick up a 5.5mm hook, and of course the shawl became much more dense and didn't have a nice drape: I had to unravel it all and I've started again: I think I'm about back where I got to last time!
I started this blog for me - it expanded to show BFF Jackie what I was doing - and a few others have invited themselves too - everybody welcome! Mostly about patchwork, with random comments about embroidery, family and life in general, come on in, put your feet up, and I'll put the [virtual] kettle on.

2022 Week 9
I made a few of Aneela Hooey's pouches
I made two I-Spy Quilts for the lovely Tara: she contributed some fab fabrics that were very personal for her uncles, Maeve and Finn's grandads
At Richmond and Kew Quilters are are making jackets from patchworked fabric. I mentioned that I fancied using denim and Cherill brought me these that she had patched but never done anything with - WOW!!!!

Hi thanks for coming to the new blog!! This week I have been crocheting . . . (no idea why the bottom line isn't straight) I'm lovi...
As ever you have been phenomenally productive! Love all your projects, and look forward to seeing what you make with Cheryl's gift. I wondered about making an apron after I saw yours, then realised that really I needed a full length house coat (or at least something with full arms) to prevent me from getting covered in threads - turns out that the sleeves of my fleece are often coated with them! xx
ReplyDeleteLovely projects, as always!
ReplyDeleteAaargh - so annoying to swap the crochet hook around!
Especially love the bag for Jackie! 😁
Looking forward to seeing what you do with the patchwork pieces.
Hugs,
Barbara xx

ReplyDeleteThe shawl is looking great! Think of the undoing as practice 😄 Lots of makes as always. Looking forward to seeing the denim jacket too.
