I have finally finished a couple of patchwork cushions I have been making, one from a kit bought by the patchwork club and another from the Kaffe Fassett book I bought on our trip to Sitges. Dave and I bought the cushion fillers this morning and they are now on the sofas.
Here are the photos. ..
The belen ( nativity) is now complete. I have just finished knitting a little cow to finish the work.
I had such fun making the pattern for it!!!
Here is a photo...
It is going with me to knitting class
:)
I revamped a dress this week. Converting it from a long maxi into a knee length low waisted 'flapper' style, which will be much more wearable in the coming hot weayher I hope.
I forgot to take a before photo, but here is the result of my efforts.
I have finally finished the bolero I have been making for myself with crocheted motifs.
It cost me a bit of time and three balls of cotton from the local Chinese bazaar at €1.80 each.
At least it will stop the bra straps from showing when I am wearing strappy dresses.
A very hot Sunday afternoon here in Competa 44 degrees!!!
So we hid in the shade. I was doing some knitting and sat in my bikini. The washing dried in an hour on the line. The quilt was relegated to the end of the bed, and we were still hot!
I guess summer has arrived here a bit earlier than last year.
I have just returned from the resort of belenmadena after spending a few days at the ms alay apartments celebrating the birthday of my little sister Judy and her friend Denise , with our sister Laura.
The resort was really nice.
Thanks to my neighbours granddaughter for finding out the bus number and setting me in the right direction. I even managed a.bit of shopping too!!.
We all enjoyed ourselves too!!
