WIP 1. I was lucky enough enough to win a lovely AMH charm pack from Amy at Cloud CouCou Crafts and I’ve made a start on a kaleidoscope something – probably a very large cushion…
WIP 2. I’m making another round crochet boho cushion. I think my crochet is improving! This one is definitely technically better than the ones I’ve made before and I’ve barely frogged!.
WIP 3. A pattern for my Vintage Caravan Sewing Machine Cover
I am in the process of putting a pattern together for the Vintage Caravan Sewing Machine Cover. It has taken me a little while owing to the technical challenges of getting a simple but large template into a version that can be printed on A4 sheets of paper but, with considerable assistance from my son, Ewan, I now have a draft printable version of the pattern pieces. I’m planning to offer this basic pattern (as a digital download) FREE for a couple of weeks in my etsy shop and to post instructions for making it up here on my blog. I am expecting to work on this over the weekend and to post early next week. Once I’ve assured myself that it all actually works ok I’ll make a digital download including the pattern pieces and instructions and offer them for sale. I have made a facebook page and I will update progress there.
