Daisychains: November 2014
http://knitdaisies.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Ramblings about knitting, books, gardening, history and anything else I feel like! Sunday, November 30, 2014. My birthday (a while ago now). So, back in October, I had a birthday, but, as I said in my last post, life was a bit busy for a while so I never got round to blogging about it. Ever wondered what Slough station looks like at 8am on a Sunday? Well, you've already seen the plant purchases. From our lunch and afternoon out to the garden centre. Anyway, this meant we could finish watching the first s...

Ramblings about knitting, books, gardening, history and anything else I feel like! Saturday, August 01, 2015. Garden at the beginning of the month August 2015. The 1st August is a Saturday, and fine, so I could get the photos taken on the day for once! Echinacea. Although there's several flowers, these haven't reached the height they normally do. The lavender is flowering well, and has also been covered in insects. Rudbeckia bought last year and flowering for the first time. Looking good :) Ive just got ...

I had a few ideas in mind for things I wanted to buy on holiday, as I'm trying to avoid buying just random stuff to stop the stash building up again. There were a couple of nice fabric shops in Worcester, and I found this elephant fabric in Rags Fabrics (I couldn't find a website for them) to make a little dress for my impending-niece. I am r...

Ramblings about knitting, books, gardening, history and anything else I feel like! Saturday, July 26, 2014. Books read 2014 #3. Having been back in my last books read update. And read a book I enjoyed back in the Dark Ages when I was young, I found second-hand copies of some books I enjoyed as a teenager via Abebooks. 11 Liz Berry Mel. It turned out that I had managed to remember Mel. And The China garden. 12 Liz Berry The China garden. 13 100 gardening questions answered. Links to this post. These two a...

Daisychains: Holiday 2015: Worcester
http://knitdaisies.blogspot.com/2015/07/holiday-2015-worcester.html
Ramblings about knitting, books, gardening, history and anything else I feel like! Sunday, July 12, 2015. At the beginning of June we ventured off on a week's holiday to Worcester. A place I've changed trains in before, but never actually visited properly. It was definitely worth a visit, with loads to do to fill up a whole week, and beautiful scenery. It was right next to Diglis Lock. Going into Worcester was a pleasant 10 minute stroll along the river banks into the centre of the city. Which hadn't bee...

Ramblings about knitting, books, gardening, history and anything else I feel like! Sunday, March 29, 2015. A bit of a gauge issue. I have one finished item to show off. A cardigan for my [future] Godson, made with two balls of Sirdar Donegal Tweed. The pattern is Baby Vertebrae. By Kelly Brooker - I really love her patterns, they are clearly written and fun to knit. It's intended for his birthday in July. This is my latest. Knitwear model wearing the Beyond Puerperium. Links to this post. There was hardl...

Texas Quilting - Quilting in the Lone Star StateNovember 2016

8211; Quilting in the Lone Star State. Maybe Storm at Sea? I am absolutely not planning to start sewing this anytime soon – and by soon I mean tomorrow – haha! No seriously, I won’t be sewing this in the near future; I have the final machine quilting block coming out on Thursday. That same day is a Splendid Sampler block, and Amy Ellis has said…. Block 83 Minnesota Maze. Back to work tomorrow after almost a full week off. That was a nice break! 175 out of 221. En Provence première semaine. Actually, I...

8211; Quilting in the Lone Star State. Quilt, quilt, quit. I think our quilt group had the largest number yet go on our road trip yesterday. I don’t know how many there were on the bus but it seemed like I only recognized half of them. Lots of quilters in our area! It was in a venue with quite a few vendors which was nice…. 8216;Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.’ I took one look at today’s block and let out a “woo hoo! Block 47 Circle of Love. We received a wedding invitation...
