Busy Day Sewing

I've made two new sock kits to go onto Ebay, one in Clarke and Clarke fabric with lovely green gingham check inside and the other one in the Cath Kidston fabric I bought the other day with pink stripe inside. I love them both. Also I have two commissions for baby boy quilts, can't wait to get started on these, I love making baby quilts. My sister wants a tea cosy as her husband set fire to the one she had, maybe he didnt like it! I don't think I have time to go to work!

Busy Weekend.

I've been busy again! Two sock kits, one to my sister for her birthday and one for Ebay. Also a try out tea cosy, very easy but I think I made the loop at the top too big. Also I was keen to put it together to see how it went so only did decorative blanket stitch around one of the stars. It would have ben much prettier if I had done it around lots of the stars in the different colours. Also this weekend I finished the first of a friends socks and have started the second. Her husband is going to be 50 so I have knitted 50 around the top of the socks. I'm using Zauberball yarn again, I love it, it's soft and knits up beautifully. I have also put a set of sock knitters row markers on Ebay. I love crafty weekends!

Bunting Tea Cosy

I made this lovely tea cosy from Sue Stratford from the Knitting Hut's pattern. I love it, I thought it would look nice photographed next to a freshly baked loaf - smells gorgeous. This tea cosy is going into my handmade christmas present stash. The bunting was a bit of a fiddle but tea cosy itself was a doddle, I'm just wondering how else I can deorate a tea cosy. Any sugestions?
