Friday, 22 October 2010. I’m no surrendered woman but I can’t deny that I get a shocking amount of pleasure out of baking treats for my boyfriend. The idea of being the little wife in the kitchen goes against all my feminist principles but still I can’t seem to stop. I blame Nigella. Catherine Mason, whose excellent recipe this is, suggests serving the cake with strong espresso. I don’t know about that but I found the baking process was helped along nicely by a large whisky. I’d hoped there’d...When I ha...

Amy's Quick Unpick: August 2013
http://amysquickunpick.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Musings on sewing and the like. Thursday, 29 August 2013. New Look 6184 finished! The dress for my mum is finished! Suprisingly, the insertion of the invisible zip went wonderfully and I even hand-stitched the hem (I *hate* hand sewing). Here are some pictures:. The contrast belt worked well too. Here are some close up shots:. All in all, a big pat on the back for me! As this was finished just after lunch, I got on with making McCalls M6744. I'm going to try to reproduce the success of my mum's dress and...

Laura: in a tangle: Freehand machine embroidery & knitting
http://laurainatangle.blogspot.com/2012/11/freehand-machine-embroidery-knitting.html
Saturday, 10 November 2012. Freehand machine embroidery and knitting. I'm back from a semi-sunny holiday in Spain, and the clocks went back while I was away. Now the dark nights have set in I am finding it hard to find a time to take pictures of my finished makes, except for weekends! So last weekend I went to Bath to meet the super lovely Scruffy Badger for a Freehand Machine Embroidery workshp at the Makery. I made the little piece below. Check out the lace on the knickers, awesome! So far I have learn...
