Why hello Jellybeans
Can you believe it, I've been neglecting you all for over a month! Shame on me. I can however blame my absence partly on a sprained wrist and looming deadlines, not much crafting for me. So, I'm just taking the time out from a 5000 word - yes you heard me right! - essay to say hello and let you know I am still a live and kicking.
Update:
I have recently got back into sewing in a big away after watching The Great British Sewing Bee on BBC 2. My stitching was a little rusty at first but I have some lovely patterns lined up. Lollo bear is coming along, albeit slowly. I have completed two crotched rick rack blankets, pictures and tutorials will be posted soon. Annnd I have made another whale! I could not help myself, it was a mothers day present.
Now I am projected less and my hands feel lazy. But with my deadlines in two weeks they'll just have to get used to typing.
Have you had a look in the craft shop in town? I keep staring longingly at the fabrics and its started a very real obsession with tapestry cushion covers & a revival of use in my embroidery kits.
ReplyDeleteYou'll be pleased to know, I've been using your curtain making tutorial too :p Dad needs a fresh pair, as do I for my upcoming new flat! :)
