crochet blanket and jars

Here's my little corner in my conservatory where i can quite happily sit for ages in the summer.

It's finished at last and i love it, so does the dog as well. I want to start another one now and im thinking bright colours for the next one.

now these i can't stop making now iv'e started. There is a tutorial for these on Attic 24's blog along with lots of other lovely things, i love this blog.

The dolls set is also finished and is now on ebay so fingers crossed it sells.

has it really been a month

Since i last blogged???? where has the time gone to, i have been busy knitting and taking pics as i go along so heres a few pics.The ones above are dolls set with knitting lace.

This one is made with magic wool which knits up like this.

heres my daffs which have looked lovely while they have been in flower.

and here is my new rocking chair!! I love this and when my crochet granny squares blanket is finished it will look fab on this chair.

and lastly is some HOME letters which i won on ebay not sure where i am going to put them yet so they are in the hall window for now.

more of the crochet blanket n treats for me

These are the treats for me, my daughter is a body shop consultant and i had a party for her last week, heres what i got, some lovely smelling cherry flavour shower gel, i also got the body butter to go with it, it smells so yummy and who could resist pink large nail files?

I have been wabting some of these lovely brushes for a while now.

I have sewed up the pile of granny squares i have been making because i just couldn't wait anymore, now i am still making them and adding round, it's quite big all ready but im going to keep going until i run out of yarn, its so soft.

I have just come across the lovely atic24 blog which has some of the most lovely crochet going on and where i found the pattern for this, its just a jam jar but im going to use it on my table to put pens etc in.

While doing the food shopping i picked up some mini daffs which are just the right size for my shabby chic tea cup.

It's a snow day!!

Don't ya just love to see it snowing.

And the winner is.....

Number 5....... WHICH IS YOU KAREN !!!!!

I do enjoy doing these little giveaways, i enjoy making the little flowers to, i think they are going to be popping up all over, on my face cloths etc.

Anyway no pics today BUT i do have a little special offer going on just for my blogging readers.... i am going to sell just for this weekend only my mug warmers at BUY ONE GET ONE FREE!!

one for me and one for you

I have been having a break from the granny squares and trying out a few tutorials. Heres a knitted flower which i found on ravelry and i have made this one for you, just leave a comment on this post and i will do a draw, i havn't put a broach pin on the back of this flower because i thought i could be used on anything really.

The secomd make is this lovely valentine heart which has a crochet edge, now i have had this one printed of for ages and only just got round to making it, i found it on blog land and i think it is by orange flower, but this ones for me.

Its booked....

our holidays for 2009 have been booked today.

we are going to spend Easter in Portugal with my sister in law and family.

Lucky for me my sister-in law owns this lovely apertment which she rents out. Its the first time for me going abroad, my daughter went there last year and said how fantastic it was so i have plucked up the courage to fly.

just look how lovely it looks.
