Bits and Pieces

Hello all, hope you are having a good weekend.

I finally finished working on the kantha style embroidery piece I took on holiday with me - a girl can never have too many fabric baskets!

I haven't decided what is going in it, but I am loving the result!

I spent a couple of hours yesterday with the ladies from Chertsey Museum.  We had a go at two crafts, making pompoms (5 at a time) and using fleece or jumpers from a charity shop to make boot toppers (or legwarmers)


 Loads of pompoms






Lots of brightly coloured boot toppers


And Show and Tell from December and January's sessions:
