The Sailmaker's Daughter: May 2010

http://sailmakersdaughter.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html

Thursday, May 13, 2010. They call me Mellow Yellow (quite rightly). Hey Dudes and Dames. Bagged myself another Etsy Treasury. A woo-hoo. Treasury is an interesting feature on the Etsy website which allows you to pick items and arrange them similar to what you see on Etsy's front page. Some Treasuries are picked for the front page too - if the tone is to the admin's liking. I think of it as a sort of mood board. Well here's mine anyhow:. Http:/ www.etsy.com/treasury list.php?

The Sailmaker's Daughter: February 2011

http://sailmakersdaughter.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html

Wednesday, February 9, 2011. Is it just me or does the new year exercise craze really seem to be sticking this year? The paths of Dublin will be pounded to a fine powder if we keep this up! My fella ( to use the colloquialism ) is a "runner for life" with 2 marathons under his belt at only 27. He asked me to read this book as even though it's quite new it has becoming a bit of a runner's bible. Links to this post. Thursday, February 3, 2011. Here are a few of the items I've been posting recently.

The Sailmaker's Daughter: Necessity is the Mother, Spray paint is the Pop

http://sailmakersdaughter.blogspot.com/2011/05/necessity-is-mother-spray-paint-is-pop.html

Sunday, May 22, 2011. Necessity is the Mother, Spray paint is the Pop. I don't know how many of you guys read Centsational Girl. But if you do then you probably share my wonder at her ability to effect complete transformations using spray paint and little else. Then it hit me (or spritzed me) SPRAY PAINT. I wasn't sure if the hardware shops here would be up to the challenge but shame on me, not only did they have spray paint - they had Rustoleum -Centsational Girl's brand of choice.

The Sailmaker's Daughter: Charlotte Holmes

http://sailmakersdaughter.blogspot.com/2011/01/charlotte-holmes.html

Friday, January 21, 2011. This little number is a piece I recently completed. It had been sitting in my UFO pile (that's "unfinished objects" to all you non-procrastinators out there) for so long that tackling was really a cathartic act cause I was just so sick. Of looking at it! By the way, does anyone else have more clothes in their refashioning piles than in the wardrobe or do I just have a problem? A brief outline of this method would be as follows:. Pin lining to facing and cut your shape out. My co...

The Sailmaker's Daughter: October 2010

http://sailmakersdaughter.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html

Tuesday, October 12, 2010. The colder days are blowing in complete with nipped noses and ears. While I haven't come up with anything in the way of an attractive nose cosy I have got the ears covered (no pun intended). Inspired by the basic concept of this lovely creation,. I decided to crochet a version and whittle down some of my stash of random single balls of wool. The wool I used was 50g of Jaeger Siena 4 Ply and the hook was 3.5mm. So on to the pattern my lovelies. Repeat Row 2 . and so on. I'm curr...

Laquo; i see london. The lookiloos are coming! With the recent tutorial madness i thought i'd post this one. Here is the original sweater post.
