Easter and Spring Embroidery
I thought I would get started early for Easter (I did these Jan/Feb, only posting now they are with the recipients!). I had managed to buy quite a lot of embroidery designs from JuJu at a really reasonable price. I bought some plain tea towels (Amazon Prime next day delivery is so useful). I have …

Crochet dress
This brioche crochet jumper by Tatsiana Kupryianchyk of Lilla Bjorn Crochet kept appearing in my Facebook feed on various crochet pages, but it was only when I saw this dress variation by Lisa Khoo I decided I had to make it! Original pattern can be purchased via Ravelry – https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/alma-sweater I decided to use the …

Neonatal unit baby blanket
I joined another ‘craft’ facebook page, which received a request for knitted blankets for the local hospital neonatal. I have opted to use a lovely soft Ella Rae Cozy Soft Prints wool that I got recently from the Knitting Network when it was on offer. The Pattern said 250g of double knit, but I think …

Patchwork Pillows
Paul has been asking me for some new cushions for our bed for a while. I really loved the colours and effect of the simple patchwork quilt, so thought I would make some to match. Cue a long search on line to try and find the same jelly roll that I had used for the …

Jelly Roll Quilt
I bought this jelly roll when I bought the fat quarters for the 3D patchwork. I liked the colours in it, but it wasn’t enough to do the 3D patchwork I wanted to do at the time. I finally got round to doing something with this, as I need to practise the quilting part of …

Another Baby Cardigan
This is another, that when I saw the cable pattern on this cardi I had to buy the pattern. I have made this 6-12 month size, and will hopefully get this in the post to my niece for her little boy before he grows too much! I just need to finish sewing it up, and …

Embroidered FSL Hearts
These designs are from Designs by JuJu. I saw a fantastic deal on their website that if you spend $20 you got 16 designs free (most of these were sets, so multiple designs). I had seen these hearts and thought they would be nice, but then had to try and spend $20 to get the …

Circuit board shirt
Eagle eyed followers may have spotted this fabric in one of the other posts, when I bought fabric and wool on by birthday day out in Shrewsbury. I finally got round to making this one up last week, and did the button holes yesterday. Really happy with the pattern matching… what pocket!? Photos are before …

Chunky purple cardigan
I had bought some of this lovely JC Brett Marble Chunky a long time ago, not sure what to make with it. When I saw the cable pattern on this, I had to buy it. I didn’t have enough wool though, so had to find more! What is really strange is that the pattern says …

Robin dress
I found this lovely fabric on-line when I was looking for pyjama fabrics. This was on eBay, which I have rarely used for fabric (always for buttons and zips though!). With a son called Robin, I can never resist a good robin pattern, especially with this shimmer/foil effect. I wanted to make a skater type …
