Poinsettia
This week I have reached a record for how long a poinsettia plant will last from before Christmas
These plants usually die before Christmas arrives, but this one is amazing it is flowering now.
Patterns
Breaking news
I have reduced all my toy patterns on Ravelry and Etsy to £3.00 each, this is to make things simpler at the shows.
I have been tidying up and have found a crochet calendar from 2009.
These calendars are full of lovely designs almost 360 every day has a new pattern or a second part, so the are not 365. I am not so sure I would ever make the slippers, I like the grape cluster though.
Patchwork
At last this week I have had time to use my sewing machine, I have made a purse, a bag and a quilted simple bag which needs a fastener and edging..
All were kits I have been storing in a drawer for some time, I pick them up at the shows and forget to make them or don't make the time to make them.
After the last show at Birmingham I have been having a few weeks of time off designing the crochet patterns and leaving time for me to do other things, dare I say it but I have been knitting as well..
Knitting is not my favourite occupation :-)
I have joined another part work for knitting in the hope that I will get to like it more, my Mother was a great knitter she was never without something on the go..
I hope you all have a good week, at least the sun is shining here today, I am going to get on with some jobs that really need doing, I would rather be crocheting or sewing...
Happy days
