CATCHING UP

There has been no doubt that it is winter this week! Icey winds, heavy rain, and dark skies have seen the barometric pressure drop and created perfect stitching days. Unfortunately, my body does not take kindly to such weather and some days I am unable to stitch due to the pain medication which seems to effect my eyes or I am far too weary.  Sometimes I stitch regardless but my stitches are not as good and I end up unpicking or just leaving them as they are. So, here are the BOM blocks.

                  
               3 of July's ( one more to go).

I have nearly caught up despite joining months after it started. Yey!  One complete and one half done for August.

I have taken an interest in a thing called "Scrumbling" so I ordered a book online which I thought may help. It is not what I expected but it does have a few ideas and instructions which shall be useful. Silly me! I thought I could play around with scraps of yarn...then I remembered I gave it all away for charity knitting when I had a big clean up! Dah! 

I do have yarn to play with, just not scraps so I may have to order some different textured yarns online or wait until shops reopen here.  If you want to see what " scrumbling" is, take a peek on You Tube. There are heaps of lovely things there.

Another book from my pile has been read. It wasn't until I was half way through that I realised it is a sequal to "The Lavendar Farmer" which I haven't read. It isn't important to this book and now I know what happens to the main character I feel there is no point in reading it .

Enjoy these quiet times, keep safe, and keep smiling. 

Angel Blessings.
