March done :-)

Some more knitting for March, a soft woolly hat for a cancer patient (design: Bitta Mikkelborg). Made in Alpaca silk and soft merino wool.
And 3 small blankets for small babies. I make up a few at a time and send off to an organisation that distributes to a hospital that cares for premature babies. Easy to do while watching TV.

And that is another month gone :-). I do hope April brings a bit of warmth, I just looked out the window and there were snowflakes in the air! 
I have also been working on the stitcheries for the Unites Stitches quilt. Waiting for the last 3 to land in my postbox - and then I must start on the rest of the blocks. I do love stitcheries :-) 
Hoping you are having a good time sewing, knitting or whatever you enjoy doing. Bye!

Waiting for spring

March is a tricky time weatherwise. But when the sun is out, you can feel the rays feeble warming and just know that they get stronger everyday.

Here is an Octopus cowl made for my Great-niece - still have to dress up warm when out to play.

A bit of sewing done at the weekend. A tabletopper for son #2 who has just moved to a new flat and needs some fabric touches to soften white walls and big windows. I haven't used the Twister for a while and it's always fun seeing how it turns out.

Hope you are having a nice day!

Been busy

It’s that time of year ! I have been quite busy and still have more to get done - will have to see how far I get.  I enjoy making a few C...
