Back to 15 minutes a day

I really want to get back on track with my crafting in 2020 and I would like to finish up some more of the UFOs I still have to complete so what better way to do it than to join Kate over at Life in Pieces for 15 minutes of stitching per day.

Meet Kim the Little Kitty!

I have finished another little project. This one was made for a friend who lost a lot in the recent floods up here. I hope it will brighten her day a little.




Made with a pattern by One & Two Company

My first finish for the year might have taken a while but my second one was nice and quick!

This one was a few days in the making mainly due to a blackout but at least now it's done!

A blue froggy bookmark for a friend! (DD thinks he looks like Grover!)

Soo Excited!!!

The kit I was talking about yesterday arrived today! I was worried it may have been lost or damaged in the floods but it arrived safe and sound!


Any guesses to what it might be?

Finally a Finish!

It took a while this year to get a finish but here it is! My version of Little Ella pattern is by  Little Aqua Girl. I am so happy with it! I just love Erinna's patterns they are so amazing and easy to follow. In fact, I just bought a kit from her for one of my next projects! I wonder what it will be...

Anyway here are the photos of Little Ella in green!

So It's been a while!

I feel like it's been forever since I posted here, 2018 was a year of changes for me which meant I needed time to adjust hence the no postings! Hopefully, now that things are settling down a bit I will get time to not only do some crafting but also to post here. One of the first things I did when I got back on was to update my 2018 Finishes page. It's always great to see what I've completed throughout the year and I did still manage to get quite a few finishes last year despite the adjustments. 

I know I am a bit late joining in but I am going to try and join Kate at  Life in Pieces for 15 Minutes to Stitch and even though I shouldn't start anything new (because I still have UFOs from 2013 to finish!) I am going to join in with the No Fuss Stitchalong. They are doing the Romancing the Road Trip Quilt and it is one I have been wanting to do for ages! With a bit of encouragement and inspiration from them I might just get it done (or at least get it well on the way!) 

I am also a bit obsessed with Amigurumi now! I love making these little creations and seeing how each one develops their own little character! This the one I am currently working on.

I am hoping to finish it very, very shortly but I had a little bit of trouble finding the right size safety eyes. I have ordered some online but it looks like they might be delayed due to the flooding we are experiencing here at the moment. But I didn't let that stop me! I found a magazine with a kit on it that might just have the right size eyes! So watch this space! 

I also decided to give some other crochet a go and I have been working on this 
I still have a few more rounds to go on it but hopefully, it will look alright when it is done.
