more work i have done.......




This is my favorite pattern to use. It is a shell pattern. I  used it on the turquoise, white and grey blanket too.  The top is an owl, the second one is a little bird, the next is a dog, and the last one a doilie.  My first doilie!! I was quite proud of myself when i finished it!

table runner......

I have decided to start making Christmas presents early this year..... My dad is wanting a table runner for their kitchen table. It's a big table!  I cant find a pattern I like and I am just not that advanced!! I did make a doilie today.  Or I started it last night and finished it today.  It was hard but not horribly hard.  It is defiantly tedious! 
     I don't know what to do!  Should I just do it and make the table runner or should I get a piece of muslin or light material and make the edging around it.  urgh! And I am afraid that if I fully make the table runner it will take me FOREVER to make it and I have to make a bunch of presents....
    What to do, what to do.......
