Starting a patchwork cushion cover under my Mum's instruction....
Pinning fabric panels onto some flannels for little personalised wash cloths... These are lovely for a little gift, and you can use whatever fabric you have handy!
A spot of card making.... I haven't done any for ages- particularly since moving house, but I located some of my card making materials the other evening and cleared a spot on the table and set about making a batch of cards. A satisfying evening's entertainment.
And a day isn't a day in our household without a little knitting... I am currently working on a couple of different pairs of fingerless gloves and wrist-warmers. The above pair is adapted from a pair in the "Sirdar Weekend Denim" pattern book, and have a lovely chunky effect.
I always appreciate suggestions of good fingerless glove patterns, as these are a particular favourite of mine to knit at present....
They are all beautiful. I love the fingerless gloves! You are so talented with all your craftiness.
ReplyDeleteI think there's about 3,500 fingerless glove patterns on Ravelry ;-) Loving the ones you've done so far!
ReplyDeleteOooh. Ravelry- thanks Meg. I totally forgot about that. FUN! I always like a bit of variety...
ReplyDeleteThanks Kim. I should put a picture up of your patchwork apron which is rather a work of art...
Caroline you are an inspiration. I have probably far more time than you to do knitting, sewing etc, but never get half as much done as you do! Loving the fingerless gloves. They could be my next project! Currently desperately trying to knit a nativity scene and finish off a cross stitch sampler... eek! Not to mention the other 100's of things I really want to make! There is just too much choice out there!
