I really am trying

to get going! I want to make some cards, and have spent hours watching youtube christmas card tutorials, but I don't have what they are using, what I really want is to put in a list of what I have and have some kind of magic tutorial to point me to a tutorial that uses what I have!! in the mean time I have been thinking about my pumpkin for this year, and it has to be better than the ghoul from last year

or the witch from the year before!

Crochet Bag

I know that it's a bit mad, but I saw this crochet bag on Sarah's blog, then got the instructions from Lucy's attic 24 blog then decided to make it in chunky knit. I managed to snap 2 crochet hooks before I covered and cooked them in fimo!!  Now away I am going loopy hooky, hooky loopy on and on, then eventually I realise, this is huge!!!! still I carried on, and now I have a bag to hold all of my wool!! and it is so sturdy I don't need to line it Fab!!! Still not sure it shows the true size, but if you consider that these balls are 100g balls you get some idea :)

busy busy

I am still feeling productive, and have started on my christmas cards!  but I have also finished my crochet bag, but more about that later, made some bunting, and this little card for a friend who is starting her own business doing vintage tea parties, hen nights etc, I am really excited for her.  Ignore everything other than the pink bit, the white is the envelope, but now I look at the photo it looks like wonky backing!!
