THE FHG SEWING THREAD :-D

[ilove2patch]

As requested, a place for us to ask for help and advice from other stitchers and to show the things we make.
Over to you.:-D

those towels are lovely, you could do them for mdcc, or sell them online, I'd buy some of them, I had one once that came from Canada, I used it till it fell apart.

[merc1_clocks]

I agree with CB..those wouls sell no bother :-x

[learning2me]

Well thank you for the compliments ladies B-)

Not sure about selling my stuff - not sure if the standard is good enough so it wouldn't feel right somehow. However I have made stuff to order for friends in the past and they seemed happy enough 😉

Currently knitting a jacket for middle Grandson, then I'll do one for eldest. Also need to knit a Kindle cover for MIL and do more mini mittens and I think my Christmas gifts are all done :^O
APART from OH - no ideas at all for him 😞

[huggles1253]

My book on swirl knitting and my templates for the chicken cushion both arrived today!   Should I cancel my hoP&pP&p

[huggles1253]

It said holiday when I pushed post! Why would it do two p&p?

[kitten347]

Learning...you don't think your stuff is good enough to sell?  It's brilliant and would sell no problem.  If folk buy the tat lovely creations I do for mdcc just think how well your things would do.  Wish I had your talent :-x

[learning2me]

Kitten I wish i could do what you do! I need a pattern to make anything!

I think that people buy your creations for your special brand of uniqueness. Just like designer brands 😄 Maybe you should design a brand label for Kitten Designs - and of course it needs to go on the outside 😉

[stan3502]

Morning all.

Glad your healing well learning and hope you are also a little comfier merc1.

Cool here today but forecast looks brighter for tomorrow, hope so anyway as the littlies have a rugby match and I don't half get cold standing watching.

[kitten347]

PCC good luck building the chair and desk.  Just don't do what I did when you build your desk.  I built it in our bedroom as the bedroom/office it was going in was having a new carpet laid.  Quite a big desk that when I'd put it together and tried to move it to the other room, it wouldn't go round the corner on the landing.  Had to take it all apart and start again :_|

[cat-knitter]

Just popped in for a quick catch up while I have a cuppa ....... back to sanding down paintwork in a min :_|

[petitecalicocat]

Kitten my desk is staying in the room im building it in .

 At last im actually having a sewing room after all the time ive been trying to claim it back from Son ....im so excited 😄

Not so happy about all the boxes of craft stuff & unwanted items that are now in boxes on the landing though 😞

[captainbovine]

afternoon peeps...all busy I see...desks, knitting etc etc.

I've done too much walking and my ankle has swollen up I can tell as the plaster is a bit tight, so I'm sitting with my foot up on the knitting box:-)

my new colours of wool have come today so I can get on with my snake...

OH is in the morning room painting it...as grumpy as ....... because he's tired now and I haven't been able to help him!! well I did tell him not to start it yet, but do they listen??????
