Wool on Sundays – 162 (Woolless)

Welcome to Wool on Sundays! I’m sorry if anyone came by last month and found me not here. My brother in law and his family were over from Canada and we had a lovely time with them and other family and it altogether slipped my mind. Sadly, another month has passed and I’ve made not […]

The Master Plan

The master plan, funnily enough, was not to stop making things and never blog again. It was to make the garden more manageable so it would be less work and I would have more time for sewing!

The Empress’s New Umbrella

Happy Beltane, May Day or what you will! Late Spring/early Summer is my favourite time of year and for many years, I’ve had it in mind to make a sunny May Day quilt bursting with flowers and, of course, a May Pole full of ribbons and dancing children… But this is not that year! Today […]

I don’t have a plan beyond including the weekly stitches so we will have to wait to see what this ends up looking […]

Wool on Sundays – 160 (an abrupt halt)

Welcome to another Wool on Sundays :) Have you had a yarnful month? About a year ago I bought I book after seeing a sweet picture online. I can’t remember where I saw it but most likely on pinterest. I knew someone who was having a baby girl and I fell in love with the […]

February Furtling

As a lover of words, I was very happy to learn, last month, of a word that is not only new to me but rhymes with turtle…The word is ‘Furtle’ and ‘Furtling’ means ‘having a rummage, a delve, a look at the contents of something’ (Helen’s definition). So I have furtled around to see what […]
