Hello

Thank you for looking at my blog. My latest passion is applique which I have been doing since 2015. I love making things and learning new crafts On this blog you will see some of the things I have been working on. You will also see wonderful items created by other people. When I am not crafting I enjoy being with family and friends, singing and family history. My favourite place in the whole world is anywhere by the sea and I have to get my fix every few weeks. My favourite colour is PURPLE but I love turquoise too!

Turquoise bag

I finished another bag and finally felt brave enough to put it in the washing maching to felt. I now have another to do in purple and then one in autumn colours with bobbles. At this rate I will have to start at the beginning of the book again!

Limeade

I bought a ball of Katia Triana Lux which has a thread of silver going through it so maybe this will be the scarf that goes to New York?

Forty shades of green

I said I would have a break from knitting with Katia Trianna but my sister wants a scarf to take to an aunt in New York. Will this be the one that goes?

Fiber Fun

I have been weaving and have had great fun playing with my first piece which I have called "Into the Blue". I had no plan, just colours I wanted to use and went with the flow. This piece will be exhibited in August with the Cork Hand Weavers Guild.   

Card making with Tina

Tina and I had a happy, chatty day making cards. I made some using a photograph I took at Cunnamore (the sea and sky really were these colours) last year.  You can get photos printed with four or eight small images which are ideal for this purpose.

Exhibition at Drinagh Co-Op

My expert framer made a good job of framing  my wave picture and it is now part of an exhibition in the local cafe.
