Sweets Galore Scarf

We went on holiday a few weeks ago to Welshpool where we stayed in converted stables, the view was amazing and I loved sitting out back watching the sun rise up the mountain while crocheting......https://www.facebook.com/TheFaeryStitcher

I love how these colours have mixed and the wool has a beautiful sheen to it, making some more in different colours but with the same make of wool.

Faery Baubles

I've made a start on some faery baubles and I must say I am just loving the colours and how they have turned out.  They are hte same on both sides crochet wise and have been filled with wadding.  These are great for hanging on the christmas tree or infact anywhere you wish to hang them.....I might make them my signature make and will whip some up for any occasion because there are many special moments that deserve little handmade keepsakes.  You can also view them here https://www.facebook.com/TheFaeryStitcher

A Home For The Owls

Well I finally finished the owls and made them into bunting for a lovely lady Jo, they are winging their way over to her now and I know they are going to love it with her and she loves the photo of them so that's a huge phew.  Why not take a look at my facebook page on this link https://www.facebook.com/TheFaeryStitcher

Busy As A Bee

Hello lovely friends,

Well it has certainly been a busy few weeks organizing childrens school uniforms, college, work, creative time plus a holiday and home improvements which is why I haven't had much time to write here......

I have been naughty and squeezed in more crochet than I initially thought possible and I've made some bunting and a scarf so not bad.  I will be updating here with pictures of my new items but in the meantime please feel free to drop by my Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/TheFaeryStitcher

Owls Aloud

Ok so I have a thing for Owls, they creep me out with their big eyes that wanna eat you up but they are growing on me and I've started crocheting them.

In Magazines.....again

Hi everyone,

I had a lovely email from Cross Stitch Collection last week saying that they had featured my picture of the Forever Friends cross stitch picture I had made for my parents 40th wedding anniversary and they wanted to send me a prize............well imagine my delight when opening the parcel, ooh lovely colours and perfect for my crochet as well as cross stitch.  Check out issue 223 June, I'm on the lookout for that issue as they have sold out and it is one I didn't for whatever reason buy :(

Also while perusing The World Of Cross Stitch I started squealing with delight when I came across Blogger Of The Month and it is me!  what a great month for squeals :)

Pastel Mandala

I guess I am addicted to Mandalas.....I crocheted this one again but this time using the cotton and colours suggested for the pattern in "Simply Crochet" magazine and the design is by Wink http://acreativebeing.com/

I'm so pleased with this Mandala and am now hooked on cotton.
