Wool on Sundays – 99 (one little chicken)

Welcome to Wool on Sundays :) This week we went to help my youngest daughter, who is a medical student, move from Scarborough to Hull, which involved driving all day on Thursday (about 400 miles including a detour to leave our dog at my Mum’s house). And on the way back we stayed over night […]

Waiting for the light…

Waiting and waiting… I have finished a doll for my lovely friend Benta, who blogs over at Slik Stitches. Really, I should post her but I have been hoping, these last few days, to take some photos for my blog, which is to say, I have been waiting for the sun to peep out. Still waiting… […]

Vintage Caravan Peg Bag

On Saturday it was my Mum’s birthday. My Mum used to be tailor but she prefers painting to sewing these days and she has always said that she likes my vintage caravan sewing machine cover but she doesn’t keep her machine on display so she wouldn’t have a use for one. She is not […]
