Blogtoberfest #22 - Daydreaming

instead of packing...

I am daydreaming...

Dreaming about our new home, the next two years and where I am going to put everything. (sight unseen mind you)

I am thinking of setting up the study/sewing room in the same area as the kids playroom this time around.  In the small hope that they might let me sew if they are happy playing in the same room (I can only dream)

Here are some ideas I have found

A shared space over at Artsycraftybabe

I also like this space over at Blue Bird Makes her Nest

Blogtoberfest #21 - Washcloth Swap #2

My lovely partner Anita has recieved her washcloth.

I am so glad that you liked it Anita - it is a lovely pattern.  I love washcloths for that reason - you get to practice some lovely little stitches without doing something full sized.

Many thanks must also go to Jodie over at Jelly Wears for organising the swap.  Jodie is thinking of doing a Christmas Swap - what fun, so keep an eye out for it.  Now to stalk the postman for my little parcel.

Blogtoberfest #20 - It's Tuesday...

and I can't wait to find some time to sit with Amelia and show her how to use this.

During a rescent opshop visit - Amelia found this - How could I say no

I am going to pack it in the car with the thought of sitting in the back with her and doing it while travelling up to Queensland.  How do you think that she will go.  Is four a good age to start something like this?  I have started it off so that there is already something coming out of the bottom - I thought that this was a good idea as she would not be waiting for 20+ rounds before she got a result.

Wordless Weekend - Blogtoberfest #17

Blogtoberfest #15

Today's Creative Space comes to you from the loungeroom.

It is horrid weather here today * perfect for ducks, but not for little people. We sat and watched ABC Kids this afternoon and I managed to get a little knitting done.


Look at my new stitch markers! Kelly gifted them to me for helping her to sew the lining into a bag that she crocheted. They are so cute. She is thinking of setting up an Etsy store - so if that happens I will be sure to let you know. And the earrings and another set of stitch markers came to live at my place too. Thank you so much Kelly and I will remeber you everytime I use them.


*And as I sit and type this up it is hailing outside - this is a very odd October! If the ducks have any sense they will have run for cover as well.
