ALL KINDS OF EVERYTHING...
What a lovely week it's been, everything feels better when the sun is out, definitely a hint of Spring in the air!
It's more of a show and tell rather than a desk shot today...I've finished a few things and am getting some more stock ready for the upcoming fairs.
This is how the fruity square quilt turned out:
I had the salmon pink border fabric in my stash and it was just right for finishing off. I had bought a really cheap duvet cover in Tesco a couple of weeks back (£10 for a king size!) and some of that made a great backing:
Just the right colours and there's enough left for three more quilts...you couldn't buy the fabric for that!
I finished off the last of the crochet squares as well and laid them out:
I sewed them together whilst watching The Other Bennet Girl on iplayer so it flew past! I did a dark purple border to finish it off but forgot to take a pic...
Some more fabric turned up this week, must have been ordered by mistake....cough....
lovely and bright!
plus some nautical prints which should go well around here! I cut straight into the shell print fabric:
and it's turned out ever so well! I'm doing some with this pale blue lining and some with a silver grey, very smart!
I have enough to keep me out of mischief for a while....
I started another crochet blanket as my tv watching crafting and am doing Attic 24's Neat Ripple pattern in various shade of pink and grey with a white stripe in between:
I've only just started but it's growing nicely - I like the ripple effect and it's very simple so is a mindless project to do!!
Taking about crochet my SiL sent me this pic from New Zealand, the most beautiful but teeny tiny crochet earrings:
Aren't they lovely? I wouldn't even know where to begin, too fiddly for this impatient girl lol!!
There, all done, thanks for reading through to the end. Hope you're all keeping well and happy, have a great week!
