a busy time finishing

There has been a little voice in my mind  persistantly saying "you need to update your blog!!!"

The truth is I have had such a lovely time crocheting and enjoying the warm sunshine that has been over England that the last thing I wanted was to be at a computer.

Here is the craftiness that I have got up to in the last few months.

First off the granny stripe is finished...



I love this and all the bright colours, it was a joy to make.  Many thanks to Annie's Place for her inspirational colour sequence and to Lucy of Attic24 for her pattern.

Here is another of Lucy's patterns that I have wanted to make for ages and the the lovey Drops had a cotton sale and I couldn't let it pass me by so after another little browse on the Wool warehouse website a delightful parcel of cotton yarn arrived at my little house.  Not long later this is what I produced....

Now a few months before the cotton sale, Drops had a wool sale and as I obviously have not restraint I took advantage of the offer.  I did not have the love for this blanket whilst making the squares but as I joined one to another the realisation that I have made yet another blanket I can't part with, dawned on me.

 My darling husband thinks we are soon to run out of space, I gentle remind him that at least we won;t get cold this winter.

Well it's the summer holidays here, and the rain has arrived...we are hoping the sunshine returns super fast so we can be outdoors this year.

Only other news to report is that we are just waiting for the solicitors to get things into motion and hopefully all will go smoothly on the purchase of a new house.  There is lots of renovating to be done before moving in so there maybe things to share then.

Happy Sunday all
