Stitching and stuff

Hi All,

The weeks seem to be flying away at the moment! I think oh yeah I will update my blog tonight but forget and then its the next week lol.

Anyway here is how I spent that week.
(And excuse the wonky stitchy photos but I usually take them on a Friday night with my phone on one hand while I use the other hand to keep Elsa ( my over excited dog) away)

Princess Izzy

Consumed

My knitting consisted of these six matching Barbie dresses that the customer uses for table props on her dance nights.

And my next order which a twin set in 4ply cotton. I have finished the first half and am on to the cardigan.

And to top if off the ever stunning Alicia who goes by the title of the crafty princess sent me this beautiful chart.

Cheers, Sharine

Hi All,

Here are my stitchy happenings this week.

Piper  Tir N Org with more lake

And Consumed with more...brown and red...

And I'm happy to report that I finished my mermaid blanket(and started the next in line) but the lighting here today is no good so I will leave it till next week.

But I did finish this pom pom blanket and get a half decent photo of it.

And I sewed this Barbie dress up that had been floating around the bottom of my knitting bag.

Cheers, Sharine

Piper, Consumed & Knitting

Hi All,

Here is how I spent my week.

Piper with a page finish

Consumed whom I 'm enjoying a lot at the moment

And a knitting finish for a sweet little doll

Cheers, Sharine

Izzy & Consumed

Hi All,

Here is Princess Izzy this week

Have to love blocks of colour for fast progress lol

Consumed this week

Now her hair is coming in it is getting harder to only be working on her once a week but since my focus is on finishing Izzy it will have to do(oh the problems a stitcher faces)

I also used up a bit of my yarn stash with this lap sized crochet granny square rug with ate up six balls. With the kids on holidays for the past six weeks this was a great go to project with no concentration needed.

And in good news for me I haven't even replaced it...yet...
Cheers, Sharine

Wipocalypse #1

Hi All,

Back to the start and here is my starting point on my three for this year.(Ignore the crookedness of the photos bad photographer here)

Piper Tir N Org
Goal: Get onto the last row which means six page finishes.

Princess Izzy
Goal: To finish her! This is ten pages of stitching so with all three kids at school this year it just might be possible lol

Consumed
Goal: To get to the end of this row which is about 2 and a half pages

In knitty news this week I'm happy to report that I have finished Charlottes and Isabellas mermaid blankets.

But that is not the end of the mermaid blankets as Bellas bst friend would love one as well as my niece so watch this space lol

Cheers, Sharine

Stitching away...

Hi All,

Coming from a boiling point hot day in Melbourne today is my weekly update.

Piper Tir N Org - page finish which means 15 done 13 to go!

Consumed

 I have also started Charlottes mermaid blanket in the requested colours of pink and green.

It has been helped along with a road trip to see the big Koala which the kids loved. It is equal to about a four story building and there is a little zoo out the back(though the alpaca is a little grumpy)

It was a three hour trip each way but the kids handled it great(with the help of some ipads lol)
Cheers, Sharine

Knitting away...

Hi All,

I probably should have waited till I got better photos but I got a little excited at finishing one out of three mermaid blankets.
This one is Hannah's and I think she likes it?

It was done with two strands of yarn held together so knitted up fairly quicker. Maybe quicker if I didn't have to stop to knit up these dolly dresses for an order but I do enjoy a bit of variety.

And now I'm off to keep Charlotte happy and start her tail:)
Cheers, Sharine
