Loving crochet...

My latest project.  Lots of these...

To become

It will be a cushion.  One side is finished just have to start the other side. 

And I have decided that I will make a queen size rug using either this block

or this one (however I think this one "eats" more wool).

or

I've been shopping

I just love the Internet. I was looking for a specific fabric and found all these...

And these are perfect for my boys

speaking of which.....

Stack and Wack - Quilt as you go

I have started to make a stack and whack , quilt as you go.  These are going to be presents for some friends of ours. 

I have been cutting cutting cutting

then I have to piece these

then I have to quilt as you go.

Getting there......

Still got the crochet bug

Do you remember this...

Well it now looks like this.....

and do you remember this.......

well it now has a back side which is beginning to look like this.....

I have done some more hand stitching but it is on the Georgetown turnaround which is still very much WIP.

I think I am working my through my crochet obsession as I am beginning to think about all the hand sewing projects I am yet to do...so little time and so many projects yet to do

I've got the Crochet bug

......so much so that I have managed to whip this little number up over the weekend....might make it into a cushion.  (Pattern is found here). 

Guess what everyone might be getting for Christmas......

Then I could not decide on which block to do next so I had a go at a few

Then I made this great cushion cover. The pattern "Mable" can be found here.  I am experimenting with colour combinations based on the wool I can get my hands on.  You know when you start making something you get that feeling that this is NQR well that is what I had with this one.

This is one side I just have to make the other side

Told you I have had the bug......

Some Patterns.......

I made the mistake of taking one of the "Littles" with me to shop for some fabric.  I came home with these.

 

I've still got to make the ones the "Littles" asked forced  me to buy last time they came shopping with me.



And then there was more....

Fabric that is. You can never have enough.

I went to a hand made market on St Patrick day and here is what I walked away with....can't say that it fits under the hand made category though.

Then I went shopping and bought some fabric for my boys quilts that are yet to begin.

Then some fabric for girls quilts - as I have a few of them to make this year.
