  • Hi Fleabane, Appliqué is brilliant, it is like painting a picture, but with fabric and looks great. It would be good to see your unfinished work and you may even decide to finish it now!

    Yes, I agree I love the quilt and I do like the colours, even the black. I do think people who are artistic tend to be over self critical, what do you think Eddie and others!

    Enjoy the warm weekend coming up!

    Love Annette x

  • Hi Annette, I always thought if a jobs worth doing, it's worth doing well, I just think it's too dark, I've started on a flowers and butterflies one, much brighter but only 5ft x 4.5ft, for baby Mandy, my youngest grandsons next, he's only 2yo but loves cars, I can make one  in under 10 hours now so all the grandkids should have one soon.

    love Eddie xx 

  • Hi All

    My knitting has been slow as the cannula has prevented from using my arm, but here what it looks like so far. Just a reminder it's part of a very long shawl, so I still have a long way to go.

  • It looks wonderful, and much bigger than I'd imagined, your doing a great job going at your own pace so why would you change that my friend.
