I'm seriously ill at the moment
so I'll be around when I can.
I'm on the strongest antibiotics saved for pneumonia
patients. If these don't work they aren't sure what they can do.
They have upped my steriods and are hoping this will help.
I'll keep you updated and fingers
crossed I'll be on the mend soon!
Now I've got loads to show you!
I've been making things whilst I've been ill.
I'm struggling to sleep as my chest is making a horrible
rattling noise.
I'll be glad when I recover.

The pattern is available on:
Etsy
Ravelry
Next I made:
Now I did make quite a number
of mistakes on this pattern.
They are only little ones & I think it
will look much better after being
blocked.
I followed the free pattern:
by Sarah Cooper
I also made:
Some booties from the pattern:
By Happyberry
I haven't added the ribbon yet
but I might try once I'm a bit better
I finally finished my baby blanket
I'll have better pictures when we actually get some sun.
I have also designed a few add on's for my Free Mug Cozy Pattern:
I'm hoping to get them typed up soon and you'll be able
to change your applique to what mood or festivity it is.
Now that's all I've made - not been really busy :-)
I've also been trying to design my own
banner and pin:
It's not perfect but for a first try I don't think it's too bad
As you know I've recently bought a Craftsy Course.
I bought and followed the:
Beyond Rectangles Course by Linda Bermann
Retail Price: $24.99
You Save: $10.00
from: Craftsy.com
This is an easy pattern to follow & throughout
Linda gives you lots of hints and tips.
You also get a special tutorial
at the end of the course.
Throughout the course you can ask questions and get the answers
straight from Linda.
Linda's support makes a huge difference. If you get confused you can get the help.
You can do the course at your own speed & repeat as many
times as you want.
I often paused and then carried on watching when I was ready.
I loved the fact that I could see what I should be doing.
You were given options to choose what you would like
to do on certain parts.
Linda makes all the instructions clear and you don't miss a thing.
After completing this course I decided that
I enjoyed it so much I wanted to sign you for more.
Hubby let me sign up for a couple as part of my up coming birthday present
and a couple I had bought when they were on sale:

I purchased some tunisian hooks when I first start to crochet.
Apart from making 2 cowls they have been left to collect dust.
I can't wait to follow this course and blow the dust off them.
I had only really learnt one stitch previously so this is going
to be a fantastic course to learn more.

I couldn't resist signing up for another one of Linda's courses.
I also can't wait to make different things to brighten up my clothes
and my home.

This course looks really exciting and the patterns look beautiful.
It's not something I've looked at before
& I think it is one where a course will
be of a great help.
I also love the fact it teaches you how to convert old patterns
so you can use with today's techniques.
I've finished listening to:
Audio:
I loved listening to this book.
I really enjoyed the old English and some of the
different ways and predictions they had for the future.
I am so glad I took the time to actually read (well listen)
to the Original Dracula
I would highly recommend this book!
It's a classic in every sense.
Now it's your turn
It doesn't have to be crocheting
anything you've made is more than welcome!
Please try and visit at least 2 other sites
to see what other people have been making.
Can you also put the pin and link to this page
so that we can get more people joining in.
Thanks!

Love all of the baby goodies. With my little nephew on the way, I am really loving baby stuff right now. I went to Target this morning and the $ bin was full of baby goodies. I picked up a wipe holder for the diaper bag, a bottle scrub brush, 2 pacifiers, a brush and comb set and 2 little baby books that can be wiped clean if drooled or chewed on. I have been listening to books also. Right now I am listening to Anne of Green Gables. It is one of my favorite books ever. I highly recommend the whole set of books. The movies are wonderful also. I love the first two. After that they get too far away from the books.
ReplyDeleteWow your nephew is going to be so lucky to have such a fantastic Auntie. My brother needs to hurry up! I'll certainly have enough made for the baby if/when it arrives ;-)
DeleteYes I loved the Anne of Green Gables books, they are so well written. I don't think I've watched the films - now that is unusual, normally the other way around.
You've made some beautiful baby items this week :-) I hope you feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteThank you. Feeling a bit better and a lot more positive today. Just started a baby cardigan :-)
