I didn't do any stitching for several days after I returned home from Qld. Household tasks and feeling poorly left me quite unenthusiastic . Once I picked up a needle and thread again I was on a roll.
I love this cute little owl design I bought from Jenny's ,( Jenny of Elefantz) , selection of ever so sweet patterns. I decided to use a beautiful Cottage Garden thread aptly named 'Peacock'. I am thinking that I might frame it after sewing fabric borders onto it but I may come up with another idea. What I don't want to do is put it away for later as I know it will never get finished if I do that. Out of sight out of mind!
I have hand stitched the last 2 rows of my little quilt, sewn the top 4 rows together, and am in the process of stitching 2 rows together as you can see. It is pleasing to see the pattern emerging.
I have perservered with the crocheted baby blanket but I still don't really like it. I have spotted a lovely pattern and yarn in a newsletter from a UK shop so I might be a little tempted to buy it. I still have plenty of time before munchkin number 2 arrives.
As usual the weather is up and down here which is not kind to my FMS. Fortunately, I have the opportunity to rest. I know some of you are currently battling
with health issues so I send you many angel healing hugs.
Angel Blessing.
