Remember I showed you the centre of Jo’s quilt for our Around the Bend and Across the Pond Round Robin a few weeks back? Well I’ve finished the first round. After all the time I spent with solids working on my FLQS top, I just didn’t want to stop, and as Jo had asked for …
Time for a crochet post, don’t you think? Even though it doesn’t feature on this blog nearly enough, I always have some crochet on the go. It is also one of my busiest craft classes at work and so far I have taught 18 students to crochet and most of these have now entered a …

I can’t believe that I have been making this crochet blanket for the last 2 months and yet I haven’t shared it with you at all! Just too much else going on at the moment. I have been making this as a wedding present for my neice Sarah and her new husband Rob. You may …
