Apologies for being absent for such a long time. The situation is continuing - life gets in the way sometimes. I hope to be back when everything settles down again.

I have finished another blanket. This time I got the corners right and I am pleased with it. It is going to be a present so it has to be just right!

I'm very pleased that we now have thirty members, having been told when I set up the gtoup that it was completely unnecessary and covered by other groups. Welome to any new members i haven't welcomed before. As always, I would ask people to show us...

This blanket had been sitting around for at least three years waiting for the last bit to be finished but I have spent the last week finishing it. I wasn't happy with the st.st. corners but I have decided I would rather have it imperfect and ...

I came across a reference to this child's knitted sock a couple of days ago. it dates from around 300 CE and is the earliest colored knitted item found. It is dyed with plants and earths. it looks to me as if it is knitted in stocking stitch, but ...

Welcome new members! I haven't been on here for a while, mainly because I have been getting back to doing some watercolours - I'm hopeless but I keep trying - and partly because I have started anything new for a while. i am doing a rather lengthy ...

I have made my first fabric pine cone. It is a bit uneven but not bad for a first attempt. I shall get better with practice. It is bigger than I want for my tiny tree but it was fun so I shall make a few to give away.

New season's resolution: I am going to finish at least some of the works-in-progress lying around in my work-room. I shall allow myself one or two new projects, too. I want to make some very small Christmas tree decorations - preferably stitiched ...

All my family have all the quilts, sweaters, hats, scarves, afghans, etc., they can use or find house-room for. I do a bit for charitable causes, but I would be grateful for ideas for projects for the coming colder season. I like the idea of ...

I'm on holiday in England at the moment so not doing much in the way of handicrafts as I am child-minding a lot if the time! Hoping to see lots of pictures of summer projects though.

I was so taken with the geometric and optical illusion patchwork shown that I went straight ahead and did this small tumbling blocks piece which i have made into a tote bag to carry my work around.

Good to see that the group is growing, albeit slowly. With the hot weather I am starting several new small projects that will not make me hot to sew/knit. After all, it's not as if anyone is waiting for the bigger projects I already have on hand. ...

The temperature has suddenly shot up here and it is getting too hot to do anything, except for a few hours in the morning. Knitting is mostly impossible - my fingers feel like sausages in the heat, and stitching isn't much better. For various ...

People are coming and going in this group but not saying anything. It would be very nice if people introduced themselves and told us a bit about what they like to do. So far the conversation has been a bit limited.

Welcome to the group, new members. Please post pictures of your work if you want to, but there is no obligation. This group is not a competition! I love to see other people's work and get inspiration from it.
