About time I blogged ...

There’s some useful work being done in my house on this soggy windy Monday. A bed probably destined for the tip is being stripped of staples and ancient brown fabric so that some structural work can be done too. It’s not the only bed like this in my house, Matty has the one I picked up way before she was born and gave to my eldest. Amazing what storage fits inside a gutted divan. 

Today I (re)made - my bed!

And this is cute, really. I designed a patchwork duvet cover for a double sized duvet when I was 16, and then finally got around to making it when I was in my early 20s! It doesn't go on my bed much, as its quite 'warm' but now is a very good time for it!

swap doll arrived !

in the summer tantehilde (see blogs of note, left) fell in love with my wolly goats and so we agreed to trade and i sent the goat over during october ...


and this lovely girl has been made for mary ...


i made her a blanket, from sparkly cotton and white fleece, and edged with red binding to match the carry-cot hilde made.


go and visit hilde's dolls, they really are beautifully made ... thank you tantehilde!
