Sewing And Crochet.

 I have cut out all the pattern pieces for the cat purse I blogged about in my last post. This one is going to be donated to the Christmas party raffle for A.C.D.A. Grey wool outer and cream textured inner. I think that the more conservative colours will make it a wider appeal

 This is the colours I will be making my bag out of.

I am really enjoying Tunisian crochet at the moment. Another baby blanket in the making.

Making Gifts.

 I have been out of action for a little while, Just pure exhaustion to tell the truth, I have had to get myself back on track. Making small thank you gifts for Spotlight and Savers staff for all the lovely service this year. Getting my sleeping pattern back to normal is a slow process.

This is a delightful free pattern for a kitty bag I plan on making for myself, this is the link.

Aussie Hero quilt finished.

Aussie Hero quilt finished. The request was for black and orange family and pets names. The middle block has the family names on that it that I have blocked out using Photoshop.

Aussie Hero Quilt In Progress.

All the blocks have been sewn and quilted and are are now ready to put together. With the magic of photo shop I have erased the names on the blocks.

Cats And Quilts.

 Meggie is helping me today. Blocks in progress.

Tilli is sleeping in the felt in the top shelf of the wardrobe. Very comfortable.

More Shopping.

This arrived today, I bought 1000 sewing machine needles for $50 free postage on Ebay. That makes each needle 5c each. This should keep me going for quite some time.

Shopping.

While I was out today with my husband doing the weekly shop, I keep my eye out as always for things suitable to put into the Aussie Hero packages. This is what I bought today, Crossword puzzle books wrapped $2 each and the cards are plastic coated full sized for 2 packs for $2. This should keep going for a while. Each parcel will have either a pack of cards or a crossword book added to their parcel.
