Birthday Bear Paw

A Friday finish! And technically a quilt in that it has three layers – the top, iron on interfacing (which, btw, I don’t recommend and won’t be trying again!) and a back – held together by rows of stitching. I started on these blocks a long time ago when Lucy and I decided to make Bear […]

Wool on Sundays – 15 (in pursuit a the perfect circle)

Vintage Caravan Sewing Machine Cover

This isn’t 100% finished but I’ve somehow fallen out of the loop and it’s so long since I joined in with any sewing linky parties, I decided that it’s finished enough. I think a little more embellishment would be nice but I haven’t decided on all the details yet. EDITED TO ADD: Thank you all […]

Wool on Sundays – 14 (a frilly flower)

Welcome, again, to Wool on Sundays! Have you had a good crafting week? Every time I’ve tried to knit or sew anything I’ve been obstructed and interrupted to the extent that I almost feel like selling all my fabric and giving up so I’m very envious of all those bloggers with supportive and encouraging partners.

Wool on Sundays – 12 (a cardigan)

Welcome, again, to Wool on Sundays! When I started Wool on Sundays, I little expected the weather would be so seriously limiting my ability to read or write blog posts or keep in touch by email. In fact, were it not for the linky party, I may have stopped blogging altogether during these last couple […]
