Supermarket, butchers and fabric shop… I know which was more fun by far!
I’ve bought a few metres of each fabric for my next make. I’m planning to work through my Cath Kidson Sew! book as I like 99.9% of the makes. Of course it might be saved for the next girl’s sewing day as my friend and I have discussed making a different bag every time we get together . You can never have too many bags, right?
On the crochet front I’m still working my way through hooking up mini bunting as a commission from my local shop.
What crafty items have you bought lately?
The Little Room of Rachell 
Ooh that fabric is lovely. I broke my “no more wool til the stash is gone” rule today and bought some lovely fawn-coloured 4-ply, so soft and perfect for a baby cardigan or two. :)
Ha ha it’s so hard to stick to that type of resolution isn’t it?
I just had a mini yarn binge at my LYS’s going out of business sale :)
Going out of business for happy reasons like retirement or moving away I hope, rather than economic.
She just didn’t want to do it anymore. Customer service was definitely down, didn’t even offer to wind my yarn. Good thing I have my own swift!
I’ve bought some lovely red and cream yarn to crochet a centre piece for my brother-in-law. In return he’s making me a wooden frame for a stretched canvas. Swapping skills is fun :-)
I love the swapping thing, great plan.
I’ve done it a few times recently and I’m loving it. I think it’s the way forward :-)
That bunting is going to be so cute!!! The fabric is lovely too!
Thanks Hannah!
Oh don’t ask, I don’t need any encouragement. Actually it’s partly your fault for showing how interesting crochet squares can be. (That’s a compliment really, and thanks!) I’ve taken a crochet refresher class to learn enough to make a crochet blanket in the colours of a rose garden. Have been buying up the yarns and getting underway….such fun.
How lovely! I’ll have to have a peep at your progress.
