Christening

I have been absent from blogging for a while, and this is the reason, My daughter came down from where she lives near Bathurst. She drove down all by herself. She has gone back home now and is back home safe and sound, driving such a long way, 9 hours with breaks. My nieces daughter was Christened this Sunday and it was such a lovely special event. The weather was perfect!
This is one of the things i made her, a wrap over cardi with crochet trim. I was unable to finish it on time cos on one sleeve the wool is not the same colour! A caution to those who knit at night. look at the yarn carefully. I had made two pairs of booties and a pair of mittens that i was able to give her on the day. I just have to re do the sleeve then i can give this to her too.

Charity Makes for 2011

25 pairs of wings have been cut out. I am changing the pattern because i was worried about little bits possibly being chewed. So, to adapt it for my purpose I am going to sew the wings directly onto the body. I have ironed on interfacing first to stabilize the fabric and then cut them out.
