Bad Blogger


I have a deep rooted suspicion that I shouldn't be allowed to look after this blog, I do have a slight habit of forgetting to post things, sorry!
Anyway, Anne's latest tapestry is growing, it's gorgeous, I do love the colours of this one.

 And here we have Sam's little badge, isn't he gorgeous? He's stitched on wood, and I love the little button for the tail.
Susie's back on the socks with the magic yarn, I do love watching the patterns come up with her socks. 
And finally my blanket has some more stripes, I'm aware that my pictures are a little samey at the moment.

February part 2

 I told you that we'd had lots of finishes to show off this week, he's Sam's gorgeous snowman, I'm so impressed, lots of backstitch and so much white, she's so much more patient than me.
And here's the bag that Susie's made. Again, I'm very impressed, I don't think I'd even have known where to start. You don't want to know where she keeps her purse though

February part 1

 We've actually had finishes to show off so, I'll be showing those off for the next couple of week.s
Anne's finished one of her tapestries, isn't it gorgeous? And you should see the next one that she's working on as well, so pretty! She bought this one if for us to see and how could I not then show it off here?
Isobel bought the bird tables out, and I managed a spectacularly bad picture of the colours, it really is so pretty.
And finally, by blanket continues to sprawl

January week 4

Susie's been working on this for quite some time (there's a chance that the child it was being made for has already grown out of it), but it's been made up, and personally I'm impressed that she can make something human shaped, I only work on things with right angles.

January week 3

 We're on blankety goodness this week, Isobel and I are both working on the ripple stripe blanket by attic 24, albeit in different colour schemes, and different levels of progress. I've been working on mine for ages, and it's just stopped looking like a scarf.
Isobel's just started hers and is using the Coast colour scheme, and she seems to be rather enjoying it, I have to say that her colours do look fantastic.

Slightly Early Happy New Year

 I have been a very bad blogger, both here and on my own blog, so here is the last post of the year and a promise that I will be much better next year. So, here is what everyone was working on at our last gathering before Christmas. Isobel was working on a travelling pattern which is very sweet, and I think this is the best photo I've got of her lovely fabric, although it still doesn't do it justice.
Next up is my Nemesis project, I have never had such trouble with a pattern before, this went to group with my last time because I was hoping that someone else could help me translate the pattern, They did, and thankfully it's not finished, I'll try and put a finished picture up at a later date. 
Sam was making some lovely Christmas jumpers, I love this, who doesn't love a festive jumper? 
And finally Susie was working on some socks with her magic sock yarn, I find these absolutely fascinating the way the yarn makes the pattern.

Happy New Year all, and if you'r New Year's resolution is to start a new craft, or spend more time working on one, then why not come along and join us, you can see that we work on quite a range of crafts.

December

I have been a terrible blogger recently, both here and on my own blog, so I apologise for that.
Firstly Isobel's lovely SAL, I love the fabric, but I can't get a decent picture of it.
And Sam's snowman is nearly done, I'm hoping for a Christmas finish
