A Day at the Show!



We had a lovely day at the stitches and craft show today in Sydney. I had my 20 month old daughter with me and we prammed our way through the show. I was so pleased this year that they had special parking for people with pushers. Extremely considerate of the organisers compared to last year. Heres my stash off goodies purchased today. I hope to return Saturday child free to enjoy more.

Its finished!






I have finally finished a cardi which i was knitting for my daughter. Its taken me just over two months and i'm just thrilled with how it turned out. Oh well she will get 4 weeks of August to wear it. I will have to start her winter cardi for next year well in advance of the fall of Autumn.

Blogging for dummies

I feel so embarressed that its taken me 2 months to write my second entry. I borrowed Blogging for Dummies from the library (yes they do exist) and i hope to work through a few technical issues.

My first post!

This is my first post to my new blogsite which is in its very early stages.
I went to my local church craft meet tonight where i resurected an old folk art tray started 20 years ago and never finished. I needed to practise comma strokes before i would even contemplate the nearly complete tray. I actually enjoyed folk arting again which surprised me.
I also had a lady teach me a little more crochet. I have my eye on a pattern which i want to knit my 16 month old daughter. In the book it says crochet this in ten hours which is encouraging. I mean you have to start somewhere.
