Autumn Days...

Hello, happy autumn greetings.

We've had a lovely half term here, mild weather and plenty of fresh air.

 

A little colour left in the garden. I picked a dahlia today to cheer up the window sill in my bedroom.

I was very pleased with my three home grown pumpkins!

 

I've been quietly working on my Grandad's Christmas present ssh!! Don't tell.

A cosy lap blanket for chillier nights.

It hooked up quite quickly in a granny stripe pattern, I used stylecraft grey dk yarn and a blue from my stash.

My cat Dusty seems to have taken to one of my vintage suitcases I think I might have to get him one of his own and convert it into a bed.

 

Thank you for your kind comments on the last post.

Mollie Makes Crochet Cushion CAL

 

Hello to you...

Hope you're all well?

This week has seen me turn 29 - my last year of being a twenty something! My naughty shoulder is playing up. I really hope it isn't RSI. I can't not crochet! And we've a new arrival in the shape of a feral kitten...

So, another busy week since I last posted.

So as you know, I've been joining in with ladybirddiaries and chrissiecrafts with their blooming crochet along.

I've really enjoyed the company through my various projects.

Last week saw me finish my CK inspired blanket so I've been twiddling my thumbs and wondering what shall I make next? My partner bought me this book about a month ago and I was instantly drawn to the granny square cushion...

 

Quite a simple pattern so not too much concentration necessary.

The book is great, full of colourful patterns and comes with a really cool folksy daisy free gift.

My partner bought mine from here

Well worth £5.

 

I've made my front panel - 36 squares all joined together. Back panel next.

A smaller project is welcome after the blanket.

 

 

 

Here is photo of my favourite birthday present - a genuine 1950's print of The Green Lady. I absolutely love it! My partner bought it for me and knows me so well...I'll stop being slushy now!

 

 Today my daughter, her friend and I carved pumpkins. We all enjoyed the messiness of it!

I hope you all enjoy a lovely weekend.

Thank you so much for all your lovely comments about my blanket and also making me feel less mad RE my daughters rash...

A warm welcome to my new followers - lovely to have you here with me!
