Morning everyone.
Yesterday was lovely. Circuits was great; I handed over the bread and Lindsey got in touch later to say is was delicious so that was a relief. Then I drove off to Diane's and spent the best time catching up, exchanging news and views and generally having the best time over fish and chips and coffee.
Anita's book arrived. I've glanced through it and it looks really good.
I have used a photo to work out shades - it looks like four will be best so that's what I'm trying now. I can use the results to cover a cushion pad or something.
There's time to think about it all, isn't there?
Today I'm off to Groove and then I have someone round. It should be another really nice day.
Have a lovely day, everyone. xx
Blanket is gorgeous and will be both beautiful and useful thereby fulfilling William Morris’ principles. Catriona

That blanket, both the design and the colours, is absolutely beautiful. You are going to have such a cosy Winter.
ReplyDeleteI'm really pleased with how it turned out. Thanks, Sue.
DeleteYou should be justifiably proud Joy, the blanket is gorgeous. xx
ReplyDeleteThat's so kind, thanks, Sooze. xx

< chuckle > What a nice thing to say, thank you! xx
DeleteThe blanket is beautiful, love the colours and design. Well done!
ReplyDeleteI chose the colours but the design is not mine, it was a free pattern from Anita's site/blog. Such a generous lady. Thank you. xx
DeleteCan you share the link for the pattern. Marjorie in snowy Canada
DeleteYes, indeed I can. I'll post it in tomorrow's (Thursday's) blog. xx
DeleteYour blanket turned out beautifully!
ReplyDeleteHi, Janette, and thank you very much. I'm so pleased with it. It's the first of that type I have made - I guess it won't be the last. xx
DeleteGorgeous blanket. I love the colours you chose. Have fun with the maple leaf blanket or whatever you choose to make.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
In the end, the colours did work, despite my reservations. It has taught me that context make such a difference.
DeleteAdvent is coming up and I will have the little advent project to work on each day as well as a mini cross stitch (and I will be away for four days) but I am trying put the pattern (see tomorrow's blog as well as above) so I have my New Year project ready.
Thank you, Jackie. xx
