Kirstie's Homemade Home

Hi, did any of you see this programme on Channel 4, Thursday nights? I really enjoyed it, thought it get better with each episode. For me there was something in every episode that i was interested in (can't say that about too many tv programmes) knitting, quilting, spinning and the beautiful glass. I love Kirstie's other Channel 4 programme, so to watch her do up her home was a joy to watch, especially when she include so many crafts :0) Loved the knitting slot, thought the group and shop looked fab
and the quilting, wouldn't you just love to go to that quilters workshop, just gorgeous.

Hope you are having a sunny and fun weekend so far, be in touch soon, bye for now. x

Hi

Hi there, haven't posted for a long time i know but i'm not going to make excuses (again) so i'll just get on with this post.

I have started a new knitting project, a tie front cardy for my grandaughter, the yarn is snuggly bamboo and it's a joy to knit with, so soft, i just have a front left to do, will post a finished pic as soon as.

Weather not too good here but don't expect any different on a bank holiday! Hope your having a good Monday wherever and whatever you are doing. Will post again soon. Look after yourselves

bye for now.

To close or not to close?

Hi all, again not been on here too much, just don't seem to find the time. I have made loads of excuses in the past so not going to do all that again, i love reading everyone else's blogs and find them fasinating but just don't seem to have anything quite as good to blog about . I will ponder over this in the next couple of weeks and let you know what i decide. In the meantime i will keep reading your blogs and maybe get some inspiration!!!!

February Already!

Wow, where did January go! It just whizzed by, not much better on the weather front, we are having snow at the moment and it will last into tomorrow with a biting wind. Well it just makes me want to stay in and knit, which is my favourite thing to do, yipee. Hope you are all ok and many thanks to those who kindly stopped by and left a comment last time, i really enjoy reading your comments and love checking out your blogs (something i spend alot of time doing) Hope February is a good month for you & yours, stop by if you can, bye for now. x

2009

Hi, hope your start to 2009 has been a good one so far.
This year i'm not going to make any new year resolutions because lets face it how many of us actually keep them! you never know what life will throw at you, time flies by and before you know it the year has passed by. So with that said i have decided to just mention a few things i have been thinking about and will add others to future blogs and just go with the flow :0) I've joined the stashalong over at AY forums to try and reduce my stash (although it's not as big a stash as some i've seen). My current WIP is a Gilet knitted in Hayfield Galaxy Chunky, lovely and soft yarn, i will post a pic later on and hopefully let you know of one or two others things in the pipeline. Take care.
P.S Don't forget to stop by and let me know what you are up to for 2009. x

Happy New Year

Very best wishes to you for 2009, i hope you and yours have a healthy and happy year to come. See you soon, take care. x

Happy Holidays

Well we are nearly there, hope you are ready or almost ready, i'm in the almost ready camp!! This year has flown by, i haven't gotten around to all those things i wanted to but it's been a hectic year, new baby granddaughter amongst other things has kept me very busy indeed (but a nice busy). Those things i wanted to do will still be there, what matters is that you and those closest to you are happy and well.

Please stop by and let me know what you are doing for the holidays, ours will be spent at home with family, hoping to chill out and of course sometime for knitting would be nice :o)

Iwould like to wish your and yours a very Merry Christmas and all the best for 2009.
