So Long Ago!

Its been a long time since I updated, I know!  You know when you keep meaning too, and then you keep putting it off and before you know it the whole of summer has flown by (plus some of spring) and you're into Autumn!

Well I have been busy at least.  I've just finished the above quilt for my youngest daughter, using the farmyard panels which were in a cot runner which was due to become redundant.  It's a first for me, complete with wonky lines but I'm proud of it.

I also made this Anya blanket (found on Ravelry) over the summer holidays.  I'd like to re-do it in one colour or perhaps a subtle variegated yarn.

I was treated to some fabric - an early birthday pressie and I'm still deciding what to make although I've already incorporated some of the cupcake material into my eldest daughters blanket (still being made).
I also bought a kit from The Sewing Shed and made this lovely bag which is great for carting my crochet out and about.
 I embellished a plain cardigan with some crochet flowers for my eldest daughter....
 And made quite a few cushions for our caravan :-)

And finally I hooked up Toothless from How to Train Your Dragon.  Love the film and just had to have my own Toothless!  I bought the pattern from Etsy - here's the link.

That's not all I've been up to but a snap shot.  Hopefully it won't be so long before I update my blog again!
