Land of No Cooking: July 2013
http://landofnocooking.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Land of No Cooking. Saturday, 6 July 2013. There's not long to go now until Tuesday 9th July. Although my preparation has been hampered by injury I am determined to compete and complete! Any sponsorship donations will be gratefully received - please go to Angela's Sponsor Page. Thursday, 4 July 2013. I'm behind at posting on my blog and I'm behind at reading other blogs so I thought I'd do something about it this evening. I have finished Freddie's jumper. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). A little bit of every...

Land of No Cooking: June 2013
http://landofnocooking.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Land of No Cooking. Tuesday, 18 June 2013. Ellie's cardigan is finished. It's very girly - not at all like her, Neil said I should have made her a combat jacket. I've started a jumper for Freddie, this is the back and it is now finished and I've started the front. I had an afternoon in my sewing room yesterday and made these hanging hearts. I gave one to a friend today as part of a birthday present. Saturday, 8 June 2013. This is why I love getting up at 5.30am. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Picture Window...

Land of No Cooking: April 2013
http://landofnocooking.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Land of No Cooking. Wednesday, 24 April 2013. It's my piece of fabric for the round robin we are doing in Spectrum. It was such a small piece of fabric that I felt it needed to be made bigger. It took some courage to actually take the rotary cutter to it and cut up someone else's work. But I finally managed it. I'm still tempted to add some stitching to it but I'm going to leave that to the next person. There is one nesting swan. Tuesday, 16 April 2013. Eva was christened on Sunday. Eva and Grandad. ...

Land of No Cooking: March 2013
http://landofnocooking.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Land of No Cooking. Tuesday, 19 March 2013. I'm very pleased with my dyeing results, in fact, I'm quite excited. The colours are crisp and vibrant even when I over dyed a printed fabric. I'm keeping notes on my dyeing for future reference. Right now I've got this quilt on the basting table so that I can get it ready for a show on Create and Craft TV on Sunday. It won't be quilted, but I will be able to show in more detail how a quilt should be layered and basted. Labels: Create and Craft tv. Now yellow i...

Land of No Cooking: May 2013
http://landofnocooking.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Land of No Cooking. Friday, 31 May 2013. Over the Bank Holiday weekend Neil and I visited Wicken Fen. Neither of us could understand why we hadn't been before as it's not really that far away. We had a lovely time - the weather was gorgeous the dragonflies were out and in the middle of this picture you can just make out the Red Arrows. You may need to click on it too make it large enough to see them. All I have left to do on Ellie's cardigan is the two sleeves so hopefully that will be finished soon.

Land of No Cooking: December 2012
http://landofnocooking.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Land of No Cooking. Friday, 28 December 2012. This was Whittlesey Wash on Boxing Day, the road has been closed since before Xmas and is clearly not opening any time soon especially since we have had more rain and there is more forecast. You can just make out the white lines under the water. This view is looking back towards Whittlesey. Ellie enjoyed her lunch, she managed to eat five roast parsnips along with everything else. This was Eva after an afternoon and evening with Ellie, I know how she feels!

Land of No Cooking: Getting On
http://landofnocooking.blogspot.com/2013/05/getting-on.html
Land of No Cooking. Thursday, 23 May 2013. Yesterday was the worst day ever - everything I did or touched went wrong from the minute I got up to the minute I went to bed. I've finished the scarf I was knitting so I started a cardigan for Ellie. I sat down to do a few rows yesterday evening, I'd done four and then realised that one of them was wrong and had to undo three. I wasn't happy. This Australian magazine (along with others) arrived at work yesterday and I just had to have a copy. I'm so glad I...

Land of No Cooking. Tuesday, 31 July 2012. Spectrum and a Summer Project. During August Spectrum doesn't meet as a group but Gina didn't want us to be lazy during the summer break so she set us all a summer project to be going on with. We were allowed to choose our subject and I chose Circles. The only rule that I can remember Gina. Setting was that we had to start with a mind map and this is mine. The first page in my sketchbook . A cushion cover that's nearly finished. A Lemon Drizzle cake for tomorrow.
