OPAM August

This month I only completed my stitch along, worked on lots of other bits and pieces, lots of starts and sorting of fabrics for works to come.
The SAL is a cute little bag, from Anni Diwns "Some Kind Of Wonderful", I used Japanesemprints, and the gokd thread I did the stitchery in, I bought when my daughter was a baby (30 years ago!), from a little shop in Cairns, in FN QLD.

Happy stitching until next time

Restocking of Supplies

Thank you to my beautiful daughter for driving me to various locations, so I coukd restock on FQs, knitting yarn, and pencils, paper and paints, and stamps for doodling and journalling.

Now I am going to post some of this gear back home, even though I prepaid excess baggage, I am in trouble (of the best kind - lol - to much shopping).

Happy stitching

The boys liked their knitted red beanies. And my daughters respnse to her knitted hat was, "wow, it is nice and warm".

Might go and have a cup of tea to commencevthe day.

Happy stitching

OPAM - May

This month I completed a bag, that is part of a SAL, a lacy hat, knitted from the lovely " House if Alpaca" yarn and last of all a Moebius from yarn I purchased at Spotlight, it was a boucle yarn, and I would advise anyone not to bother purchasing it, it is full of joins, very disappointing.
