Skidding in a bit late with this one! I couldn't think what I'd made scrappy this month. Then I looked at the thing I was stitching in my hands. Yes, got to love menopause. My little mini quilt hanger is bare so I'd thought I'd like to perhaps make some seasonal mini, embroidered quilts for… Continue reading ScrapHappy April ’24

Brace Yourself
Another big catch up post I'm afraid. All a bit of mish mash whirlwind as I've no idea where the time goes! Picking up from the last post I went to stay with Elsa and the Grands for a long weekend which was such fun. I even squeezed in a visit to a yarn shop… Continue reading Brace Yourself

It's done! Fin! Fertig! My Scrappy Grannies are all finished and put together. One half over the bannisters. The other half. It ended up at 85" x 65" so a bit of a biggie.

I’ve also two of my art groups exhibitions, one still currently on, to prepare for. We’ve had lovely lunches out, trips here and there and I even had a day out… Continue reading Not So Scrappy
Scrap Happy April
Well as I sit here writing this it’s hailing heavily. I was golfing in sunshine, showers and hail today. April Showers are outdoing themselves! Thankfully I finished what I needed to do in my studio this evening as the noise on the roof is deafening. This month I pulled out my ancient scrap box again… Continue reading Scrap Happy April
