Burlap (Jute)

Running stitches on a burlap sack using acrylic yarn/wool. You have to wait a bit more longer to see the final make. I am satisfied with the effort so far. Due to the gloomy weather it was difficult to get a decent photograph.

How do you like teabag art turned into maybe book-marks?

It rained quite a lot on saturday morning, so I spent most of the day doing crafts and having lots of tea.. it was wonderful. 

looking forward to may flowers ...

First day of

Spring....

Bit of paint and stitches on a tea bag. The photograph did not come out well, as it was quite gloomy on saturday, with some snowing too.

continue working on the sewing/quilting piece as well. (this photo was taken sunday)

While browsing for crafting items, I came across these lovely handkerchives, in their original boxes; one of which is mens'(plain one) I am collecting hankies for while a now, with few ideas in mind. They were $2.99 a box.

Join me for a cup !

Thank you for stopping by on this first day of spring ,

While waiting for spring..

I did finish my flower crochet throw. I spent most of the evenings working on it. It is not very large; approx. 36x56 inches.

As you know already, I do my crocheting using thrift-ed yarn; except when I make baby things, then I buy new from the store. Finally, when something is made out of all these odd n' ends, it does make me happy.

I tried much as possible to use yarn of similar colour and texture.  I didn't have enough green as same as flowers for the border, so I did use something little bulkier.

As soon as I finished (this morning) I wanted to take some pictures, and it is being very cold this weekend I had to do quickly before the sun hid behind the clouds. I think temperature was between -6c and -10c.

A little craft for the wall with the crochet flowers I made few weeks ago.

looking for signs for spring......

nothing yet...

Hope you are having a wonderful weekend,

thank you for stopping by for a little peek,
