Hooked...

Hi everyone,

I've found that I'm hooked!!!

....not just on crocheting, but on reading all the fantastic, colourful, inspirational blogs that are out there.

I had no idea so many people were doing this!

Quite often, I put the computer on and think that I will just spend a few minutes checking on what's happening in blogland and then I find an hour or two has passed!

....it's not good enough you know, I should be spending that time making stuff or writing my own blog....(oh and probably doing the housework, but that's not important, ha ha ha).

Although I am finding it difficult to keep up with blogging, I would like to thank all those wonderful bloggers out there for lots of inspiration and when I have a few more spare moments I will show you what I'm making and whats happening in my life.

....although I am keeping my fingers crossed for a slightly different career path which will take up a lot of my time, it will be an absolutely amazing opportunity to do something I thought I could only dream about.

So, back to hooking for now and c u later. x



P.S. Should mention, that the lovely tweetie bird decorations that I've made above are from the lovely Lucy's tutorial....thanks Lucy, she can be found at Attic 24.

Jacquie's Wonky World

Added a page yesterday called Jacquie's Wonky World, click above to see it.

here's a sample, Grimsby Minster.



I'm getting the hang of this blog lark slowly but I must remember to keep taking photos of stuff, otherwise it's gonna be very boring, I've been so inspired by other blogs that I must persevere.


Ernie wants a blog making now that he now longer has his weekly newspaper article, I'll let you know when I've set it up for him.


Had a friend round last night who wants to do some business together...personalised Valentine Verses and Romantic Rhymes on handmade cards, should be interesting, will put info up when we've decided on everything.


catch you later, x

Learning how to blog!

As I'm new to this blogging lark, please be patient with me and keep coming back to see if I'm getting the hang of it!


I have been spending the last month making lots of things, lots for Christmas presents but most are for sale and I am now trying to get my head round all the different forums, blogs, and web sites for selling my stuff, any advice will be gratefully received.



This is my pink and blue range...obviously! Although it brings a splash of summer into the house and I'm looking forward to the sunshine, tea and cakes to go with it, I'm still enjoying the thought of spring days, tulips and daffodils.





These are my bags that I designed and made last year, just trying to find the time to make some more in different colours now.




And of course , there had to be cushions to go with the bags!


Well, I've run out of time for now, so will be back soon.
