After a very busy October doing embroidery workshops with Margaret Light, I have finally completed the squares for the Debbie Abrahams Mystery Blanket. I have sewn them all together and now just have to knit the beaded borders. Hopefully that won't take me too long and I will have another project completed by the end of the year. I have really enjoyed making this blanket and have signed up to do another next year.
The two workshops that I did with Margaret Light were the 18th Century Jacobean Jewellery Roll and Part 2 of the Tree of Life. Really enjoyable as she is such a terrific teacher. I am looking forward to working on both projects over the next few months.
I have begun knitting a shawl for mum for Christmas in the Alchemy Haiku silk and mohair yarn that I bought from Prudence Mapstone. It is soft like gossamer and I know that mum will love it.
I had a fabulous week in October working at the Brisbane Craft Fair for Prudence Mapstone. I spent almost as much as I made but that's OK as I got 50% of all of her yarn. I hope she asks me to work for her again. I was tired but loved it!
