Hi!! I'm back!

Well howdy there people!!

That was a very long time away....and why because a well known electronics company have no idea what customer service is all about.
Anyways lets not harp on!!!


Do you like my new Aviator? Specially design for me taken from my online shop background and colours!! I like it....it's probably what I would do if I was asked!!! But I'm not that computer literate....



So what have I been doing besides ringing up un-mentionable electronics company!!!


Weeellll......I designed this Love Heart for Valentines Day and I put it up for sale in Folksy, Etsy and my own Fibre Dreams shop....





I thought right after Valentines I will make them in various colourways thinking they can be used to celebrate all kinds of Love.....


But and a-haaa....A nice girly commissioned me to make this one for her parents Golden Wedding Anniversary.....50 years married...can you believe it....

I think it turned out well.....I sent it Friday just gone so I'm waiting all anticipating nervously like for her feedback!!!!!

Errmm...!!Oh and this brooch came from......

This bag for my lovely sister, called the Boho Bag!!! It's made from an old suede jacket of mine cos I couldn't find any soft leather I could afford...I think she's pleased

And this is what I'm doing now a double collar work blouse....I'm pretty pleased with so far...

Then I was watching an old movie on TV about three girls looking for to marry millionaires (they end up marrying for love aaaarrrhhh) with Marlyn Munroe and two other beauties.....
Anyways... (!) their clothes were beautiful too....Among the outfits, a blouse that had huge puff sleeves....so I want to finish this quick, like(!??),... to make a blouse with huge puff sleeves....I wish I'd recorded it so I could re-drool over the costumes they wore.....
Right onwards and upwards, a list of things I want to make is needed now I'm back in outside world working(!?)
1.finish that blouse
2.and finish the border around my shawl I've designed and knitted
3.then onto the bloke at home xmas jumper (I still maintain there's a mistake in the pattern!!)
4.while I'm doing that get my odd balls of yarn together to use with my extreme tunisian crochet hook I bought at Aintree last week!!!!!
5.join in the KAL at Lion Brand
then....then...invent more hours in the non-working day.....
As always.....

Nice to see you back!

Very classy new avatar, it's balanced and elegant. And I'm coveting that suede bag, it is really beautiful. I love the sensual feeling of suede but I'm not terribly good at looking after it!
