Quilting you say?

Saturday, August 29, 2009

Well.. seems I can quilt! A friend phoned me to say that the local church was holding a 4 week workshop on patchwork for beginners AND the cost was only $25 including materials. Why not!? I've wanted to make quilts for the boys and this was the perfect way to see if I could do it.

So far, I have been to 2 lessons and I've finished the top of the quilt. For the first week, I was the only one who turned up! Bit embarrassing at first, but it was kinda cool having a private lesson.

Have now go so many ideas to make my boys a quilt each. Just need to choose the materials... the hardest task!




Knitted blanket for my baby

Tuesday, August 11, 2009

I got bitten by the knitting bug!! LOVE it! Have been knitting every night after the kids are in bed and it's so relaxing. Have knitted this blanket for my baby and it's now on his little cradle keeping him warm at night :)
