I WON A PRIZE!

Last Wednesday evening I went along to the book launch of Loani Prior's new book 'Really Wild Tea Cosies'. It was a fun night and we were asked to bring along a tea cosy of our own for show and tell. I wasn't going to take one but grabbed 'Sandwich Anyone?' as I ran out the door and low and behold I won a copy of her book for my tea cosy! Fab fab fab....never win anything! So chuffed!

Apart from the book launch I have been making the blocks for the Debbie Abrahams knitted myster blanket as well as continuing on with my crazy patch for Annie Huntly.

Only 11 sleeps now until the textile tour to Hong Kong and China! I am excited!

Pansy Tea Cosy



Finally! I have finished this pansy tea cosy! It was so fiddly crocheting the pansies in Appletons 2ply crewel wool. The cosy was meant to be covered in pansies and leaves but I gave in after 6 pansies and 7 leaves. I think less is more though and like the look.
