The long Summer days have unfortunately distracted me from my crochet. My handmade projects have taken the backseat to sunny adventures. My sister is getting married in August, so I have been preparing a speech for the day; I've sourced an outfit (I'm very pleased with the second hand shoes purchased on Ebay); we've had...

Custom order – Three *Card purses
The journey of creating big(ger) purses (Please take part in my survey) I’ve had a couple of people mention that I’d might want to think about purses which could hold credit cards. In these ‘modern times’ (I’m told), more plastic is held in purses than actual coins / cash. TBH, I had thought about conducting...
Mystical Lantern Blanket – WIP
Change of hook I quite like making blankets and fell in love with the shapes and colors of this pattern the moment I saw it. I came across it by chance and bought the pattern and yarn in a kit (find it here) from Blacksheep Wools without hesitation. I love making the purses but I must admit that I...
Spring has Sprung (?) WIP’s
Well, it’s the first day of Spring and I’ve been busy with even more *Coin Purses which I hope to add to my Etsy Shop on time for the weekend. I cant say that it looks too Springy in Guernsey though, its been foggy, hailing and raining and generally glum weather so far (see the foggy morning...
See you later alligator…

Tis the Season to be Busy… 🎄🌟🎅🏻

I bet you did!! 😊 I do apologise for the late update readers and fellow craft bloggers… besides being quite busy with custom orders (and of course my day job), I was asked by my customers not to display the finished works I’ve been creating for obvious secret Christmas present reasons… so its been...
Full Steam ahead…
Sometimes life drops in a few surprises just at the right time… I love it when something falls in your lap especially when its a wonderful surprise present… Yesterday such a surprise dropped into my life and there was no way I could ignore it…. Coming out of the supermarket and back to the car, this poor fellow was lying...
Back to Work WIP’s
Shortly after my *Coin Purses galore… post I was contacted and have several orders for purses (thank you). Only two ready made purses left on the Etsy Shop if you were interested. Having been tied to the sofa for 7 weeks, I was so grateful for J taking me out to the craft shop, I got some fresh...
