Setting up my pillow to do an Hinojosa Christmas tree that I designed.
It's also a piece to help me practice smooth, rounded corners and sharper,

Clay what a wonderful tribute to your friend and a treasure for her son and
husband! To incorporate her scrubs was a brilliant idea. Fabrics, like music
and smells can pull up such strong memories.
Thanks for sharing that.

Quite a few years ago, a very dear friend of mine died. She left a
seven-year-old son. I wanted to do something to help, but lived several

star pattern quilt which had squares in the center of each star, where I placed

Dear Friends,
Having finished a piece of Chantilly lace last week, I am now having
a few weeks off to knit myself a lovely Aran jumper in 5 ply grey.
It's much easier to take knitting with me to Fiji next week than bobbin lace.

I have been working on a piece of Floral Bucks Point but today I really must

I have done my lace for the card exchange, and am finishing a snowflake mat
from 'craft corner' and designed by Louise Woodward, hopefully in time for this
Christmas. I have also just made two patterns from 'roseground' which are
wooden stars with a lace insert and one has a nativity scene penda
Hi Arachnids,
This is a busy time of the year for everyone, what with Thanksgiving, St
Nikolaas (5th/6th December in the Netherlands), probably others as well for
other nations and Christmas so near most of us have our hands full.
Am working on my second exchange piece. First one in needle la

Hi All,
Working on a french fan bookmark for a young lady who was a great support to
her Mum (was client as Palliative Care Volunteer) who married in Scotland
recently. Went to a Church Camp when on holidays and found her man.
Have some quilting commitments (not good weather in Aussie for quilti
I am working on a picture of the National Women's Monument in Bloemfontein
for it's centenary next year.
Part of the actual monument is done but the figures of the women on it have
to be done in No. 180 thread in Withof techniques.
Well, after at least 6 attempts to get started and taken off agai
I am near the end of a Beds circle started in May on a course with Christine
Springett.
Doing the last motif, then will need to tie off using magix threads. I don't
fancy the latter job.
Also doing some snakes in Anchor 8 for demonstration purposes.
Not sure what my next project will be.

I'm trying to get two bookmarks done as samples for patterns on our
stand at Solihull (National Christmas Lacemakers' Fair) on Saturday -
plus all the other preparations needed to create a festive-looking
stand! If anyone is coming, I'll be on Stand D2 - the rest I'll leave to
your curiosity!
I have sent both of my christmas cards off and hopefully Ayla in NZ will not
have to wait too long. So, that lace done and my class that I taught based on
the lace completed, what should I do? I finished a fourth sample of the piece
that was on my pillow after the class. I finished knitting t
And I am working on a length of zig zags from Discover Torchon by Ulrike

Having spent half the last week knocking up tiny crocheted owls (20 so far) my
current lace project is my piece for contrasts. Milanese lace in black and
white.
Not the best time of year to be working lace in black thread. Ugh.
However, walking back to my car after teaching my class in Maidstone
