At long last a little ta-dah for the cushion I was knitting - started back in November no less! I actually finished the knitting and stitched it up a while ago - but just could not find the buttons I bought for it. I must have put them somewhere safe in the tidy up for Christmas. Anyway, I have put four temporary buttons on for now - I'm sure the six I bought especially for the cushion will turn up sometime.
My sock knitting has been a bit slow, I'm still on the first sock but I have turned the heel so feel as if I'm getting there now! I do like the way the colours are turning out.
I've also been busy with a little needle felting. I was given some lovely blankets a while ago and have been wanting to make something with them (they are a bit damaged in places so I don't mind re-purposing them). I was inspired by Sweet Birdy Love, who makes amazing things from old blankets - she is a wizard with free machine embroidery and appliqué - but I go very wonky very quickly if I try that - so I decided to needle felt instead.
Not finished yet but slowly getting there.
