Tis The Season

 These blocks were completed just in time....now to get a wriggle on with April's issue!!

Cheers....Jane.

Crochet

The hexie mat I finished on the weekend.....and the scarf was a one hour project...yes, a nice quick one.  The wool was beautiful to work with....can't wait to get some more.

Cheers....Jane.

Colourful Friday - Hexagons

Hunting for hexagons..how did you go?

This is what I found.

some crocheted ones...

& fabric too....

a few little buttons....

candle holders....

time for a snack...

a socket set....

 on the boat motor....

bolted on....

and this door handle, which I'm sure is as old as the house!

I'm sure I'll be finding more over the next couple of days....that's what usually happens.

For more hexagons pop over to Robyn @ Daisy Quilts.

Cheers....Jane.

Bottlebrush

I was out in the garden yesterday, when I noticed this Bottlebrush was flowering for the first time....it's a lovely salmon pink colour.

Cheers....Jane.

Testing

This is really a test to see if this post actually shows up....the one I did yesterday didn't show up at all....if they don't show up, there's not much point having a Blog. Anyway the crocheted rug pictured I started as a long term project last winter & resurrected it yesterday.....hope to finish this one soon!

Cheers....Jane.

Strawberry Crumble

Using the Raspberry Crumble recipe from the most recent issue of Vignette, I made this Strawberry Crumble. This recipe allows you to use any berries that you have on hand. The pic was taken quite hastily, as the family were hovering...LOL!! Served with cream it is a yummy sweet that I'll be making again.

Cheers....Jane.

Colourful Friday - Copper

I'm playing Colourful Friday again this week with Robyn over at Daisy Quilts.

This week our colour focus is copper....hmmm....a bit tricky that one, but it's amazing what you can find when you least expect it.  I was hunting through the stash this morning (looking for something else) and came across this panel of fabric....pulled it out straight away to picture as it has a lot of country copper in it (still haven't found the fabric I was looking for...LOL!!).

I was going to go into Man Land, (the shed) & take some pics of copper in cable but decided fabric was more the better option....LOL!!

Have a great weekend all....Jane.
