New Baby Blanket Design
So, I've finally finished one of my many projects I have on the go! It's a blanket that is designed with car seats and prams in mind. It's 22 x 18''so it's just the right size. I was given the idea of a smaller blanket when I saw a lady pushing her baby in a buggy with the corner of her blanket trailing on the floor behind her!
We are going to be at The Old Chapel in Upminster on 5th October, if you are nearby pop in and say hi!

Time for the blankets to come out!
Well, the weather certainly changed very quickly here! I've been listing the blankets and more winter items in the shop over the last couple of days.
I'm still working on another blanket design, I'm nearly finished now and I'm hoping to be able to post a picture later this week of the finished article!
I do love summer, but at least the cooler days mean I can wear my favourite jumper again! I certainly needed it this morning, I took my grandparents out to the Mucking Nature Reserve as they hadn't been there. We had a short walk to the riverside, and a long cup of tea! I always pick the wrong days for day trips out.

Wednesday Update
I've been really busy since I last posted! We have had some work done on the house, and got ourselves a puppy! Ill post a picture of him later - he doesn't stay still long enough to get a nice picture!
The craft fair in Orsett on Sunday was nice. The venue was visited by BBC Essex, and if you look in their picture linked below, you can just make out Debbie and Hazel in the background. Cool huh?

I'm still having a problem with my second design dress. I think I've done something to the button stitching option on my machine - Ive restitched it at least three times, and unpicked it each time! Im thinking of sewing it by hand instead.
I'm also working on a striped hoodie for a friend, and a blanket I designed. I'm not a big beliver in working on one project at a time!
