Sharonnz: Wearing It
http://sharonnz.blogspot.com/2011/09/wearing-it.html
Sunday, September 4, 2011. I'm working hard on improving my sewing from the slap-happy beginner I am. My main struggle is with getting the fit right. I finished this dress back in June - just when it got too cold to wear it. Next time I'll downsize the top even more and attempt a proper Small Bust Adjustment. It's a forgiving fit being a wrap dress. I bought Pip's Sew La Tea Do. Yeah, t-shirt doesn't match - will sort that out before summer. Meet Me at Mikes. Sew La Tea Do. September 5, 2011 at 2:10 AM.

Sharonnz: Sewing It
http://sharonnz.blogspot.com/2011/11/sewing-it.html
Tuesday, November 8, 2011. My parents have joined the e-reader revolution and bought themselves Kindles. This was a super easy, fun project. It just about took more time to select the fabrics than do the sewing. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy.

Sharonnz: May 2011
http://sharonnz.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 15, 2011. I have finished a variety of knitted objects while I've been somewhat inactive. Yes, that unusually shaped jersey IS for a dog - my sister's daschund, Lottie. Crazy, I've gone crazy. Knitting for a dog. Golly. Baby knitting to use up stash yarn. This wee cardy is a lovely new pattern. From Kelly. I've cast on another one already. More socks for ME. These are modeled by my big girl who is trying to tell me that she fits my socks and shoes. Not quite yet! Socks from the Toe Up. We did...

All and Sundry At Maitland St. Sunday, September 12, 2010. SOphie is in Colombia. SOphie spent a couple of nights in cartagena, and now she is hiking through rivers and through jungles with only a filthy blanket at night and coffee to keep her going, up a trail that mainly has a 70% incline! Take a look at this! Labels: Photos she is on the Lost City Trail. Ahoy there Kerry - you did not say you have a blog! I found you by supersleuthing. That is very cool. Welldid I not tell you?

Strawberry Jam | Spinning a Yarn
https://spinningayarn.wordpress.com/2008/11/30/strawberry-jam
The story of my adventures with fibre, fabric and food. Husqvarna Automatic / Viking 21A Manual. November 30, 2008. One of the perks of Auckland is the strawberries- sweet and juicy, cheap and in bigger punnets (“chips”) than the South Island. I made strawberry jam today (I think it was the hottest day we’ve had yet- a perfect day to stand over a hot stove! To give as Christmas gifts. My Grandad Don told me that strawberrys make a nice jam. You know what he’s getting! I took a few photos of the process.
