Wool on Sundays 23 – (somewhere else)

Welcome to Wool on Sundays 23. Today I had fully expected to be at home sharing the flower blocks blanket, which is finished, excepting that I have a few more ends to sew in. But instead, I’m somewhere else with a very red sofa… On Friday night, Mr RH decided he needed to go to […]

Fractured Colours Cushion

It’s Friday and, for once in a long long, time, I have a proper sewing/quilty kind of finish! A little while ago, I was lucky enough to win a gorgeous AMH charm pack from AMY at CLOUD COU COU. I cut into it straight away and paired it up with some Collage and some PBJ Layer Cake […]

Wool on Sundays – 21 (nothing to show)

Welcome to wool on Sundays 21! 21 seems like the sort of number that deserves a special yarn post but, I’m sorry to say, I have nothing to show, this week. I have literally done nothing blogable except work on the Caravan Pattern and Tute. I’m up to sewing on the binding and then it’s […]

Wool on Sundays – 20 (rearranging blocks)

Happy Easter! Thank you to everyone who stopped by last week and welcome to the twentieth Wool on Sundays! Having decided, last week, just to enjoy making these blocks without worrying about getting them finished, I’ve made a surprising amount of progress. It’s a wonder to me how crochet grows like it does just doing […]

Wool on Sundays – 19 (some crochet blocks)

Welcome to Wool on Sundays! My plan to crochet a block a day hasn’t worked but I’ve made a couple and made progress on a couple more. I had hoped to get some more done yesterday night but we had a power cut, which started at 5.00pm and was still going when we decided to […]

The bad news is that my Friday Finish this week is only a lining :( Who knew what a palava this pattern making would turn out to be. I started the week feeling confident that the Vintage Caravan Sewing Machine Cover pattern test and tute wouldn’t take too long. It’s a simple design and the […]
