I had a full class at Chertsey on Friday - making sewing wraps. The bigger pic here is one that a friend made for me several years ago from a Woman's Weekly pattern - the others are the beginnings of the ladies' versions - I'm looking forward to seeing them finished for show and tell next time
This month's star show and tell was A's poncho - I LOVE it!!!!
It's just two weeks now until Remembrance Sunday and I haven't get seen a poppy seller to get my poppy, but the lovely R gave me this crocheted one - I'll pop my money in the collection box at church tomorrow
In the excitement of going to Ireland I neglected to shows photos from a family class last Saturday - Making Monsters: The kids have such great imagination!
I got a lovely squishy during the week: The lovely Barbara who blogs at The Flashing Scissors posted some finger-less mittens that her mum and sister have knitted for a local charity shop. Being slightly digitally challenged (I have to count in base 8 rather than base 10) I can't wear gloves. Jackie (and previously my M-i-L) have kept me in knitted-for-me gloves and mittens but these were a bit different so I cheekily asked Barbara for a pair (and I have paid my money to charity!)
Thank you Barbara (and your mum!) They are great
As for me, my creative 'juices' have been designing and embroidering for customers!
Fun eh? But I have some holiday left to take for this year so I'm having a few Wednesday's off where hopefully I can just SEW!
We did pop out this morning to collect our pottery which we threw back in September - now painted (glazed?) and fired they are looking amazing!
I might be back on Wednesday!!!

Hi Benta, Sorry to be slow visiting and commenting.
ReplyDeleteI’d almost forgotten about the mittens, it isn’t easy to take good photos this time of year, but the colours came out really well in your picture!
Hope you enjoy wearing them.
Wow, your pottery looks fantastic, I bet you were excited to collect it!
Nice to see your friends makes too.
You’re doing well with all your embroidered badges!

I think your creative juices are always on Run mode - you get your hands on so many fun projects! The poppy (so beautiful) is extra sweet, and the mittens are quite intriguing (although I don't understand the base 8 and base 10 reference :D) :)
