Tapestry Cats

Here is my Tapestry cats to date, I haven't been doing a lot of crafts as I've been out enjoying visiting many different places.
happy stitching.

All Burned Out...

Hi All,

Thank you for your lovely comments on my previous posts,

I thought I would make a start on this

all burned out by Dimensions,

It's Tapestry not cross stitch. I bought it a couple of years ago and am doing bits here and there when I'm not in the garden enjoying the sun :)

I'm using the continental stitch on this one as it's easier with all the colour changes.

If you'd like to know more on how to do tapestry and the different stitches you can find it Here 

Happy summer days :)

Tinsel

Hi all

hope you're all well and having fun crafting,

if you remember I posted about tinsel wool awhile back

Tinsel wool

and this is what I made from it

it was very easy to knit with, although that may be because I'm used to it after doing the luxe fur teddies

lol

I still have a gold and red one to make,

it's something cute,fun and easy.

and my latest stash of yarns 

:)

happy crafting :) in whatever you do

Saggy old cloth cat...

Who doesn't love Bagpuss?
He's been a favourite with generations of  children since he was "born" over 40 years ago.
Here I've knitted the saggy old cloth cat
:)

he's knitted in Sirdar Snuggly Snowflake Chunky

I Found a place to hang my sweet swingers :)

in the corner of my sewing room,

they look nice looking down from there.

Happy Crafting :)

For those that don't know Bagpuss.. or you just want a reminder :)

Three for a girl...

This old

nursery rhyme  came to mind when I saw these Magpies in my garden the other day...

One for Sorrow
Two for joy
Three for a girl
Four for a boy
Five for silver
Six for gold
Seven for a secret never to be told.

I'm not very superstitious but I do believe in Karma,

So I must be a bit lol

Maybe I should be MORE superstitious, maybe it's a sign ;)

I'm still waiting to be a grandma after my son got married a couple of years back,

I've made a baby Quilt, baby Afghan and now this blanket and Teddy,

I Think I'll have to start leaving a few hints here and there

hahaha :)

Whatcha think..will it do the trick :)

This wool is so lovely and soft and cuddly :)
