I Won!!!

Kerstin had a giveaway a little while ago,, for a couple of Table Runners that she had made, and I won one of them!
In my package was a couple of lovely Christmas decorations and a YUMMY bar of chocolate!!! I love the snowman fabric in the runner. Brilliant.
Thank You Kerstin!!        XxX

A Few Things!

I have been off work this week with a throat infection, (hopefully gone) but I have tried to do a little something everyday,,, knitting, sewing, reading. I have to tidy my sewing room (spare bedroom) for the visit of eldest son and grandson in two weeks time. As I was tidying/playing with my fat quarters I counted nearly 140 of the little things. I have sorted them into colours and plains/patterns. (No photo though). Just a few more things to 'tidy' up then I'm done.
DH has bought me a couple of pressies this week,
The book is one that I saw at the Autumn Quilt Show at Malvern the other week, and the bamboo needles I have wanted for a couple of weeks. They are great to knit with, although a little long. DH said I could always cut them down!!!
Thought I would make myself an armchair caddy. I already made one, but it was a bit small. So I did a little measuring and came up with this. I need to keep the red note/address book close to hand, along with a few other bits and pieces when I am knitting/sewing etc.

Funny Stuff!

This was knitted using the 'funny stuff'. Quite easy to knit with and fun too! Only 7 stitches needed!! And the colour is a little more purple than in the photo!
