EASTER PROJECTS AND OTHERS

No need to remind you that Easter is fast approaching . Have you been making anything special for Easter? I found a pin cushion that I was making for Easter last year but never completed, so that is definately on my finish list before Friday. I can't belive I didn't finish it as it was only a small project . Red Brolly has a lovely free project for Easter but I have put that aside to make 3 tea towels from Bunny Hill. I have finished the first one which is for my eldest daughter.



Meanwhile, I have continued doing the stitcheries for Red Brolly's  Cotton Country. The current one is a bunny, how appropriate!









For a personal challenge I am participating in a Celtic Knot BOM at one of my patchwork groups. I have never made any Celtic Knots before , so I am rather pleased with this one.


It reminds me of a cat.

When I was browsing in a bric a brac shop at Bendigo I came across this interesting mat. There were a few of them but I particularly liked this one. I picked it up and examined it to work out how to make one. I sketched a couple of things in my notebook then remembered I had my camera with me. Dah! I think I have worked out how to piece it but it may get a bit bulky. Have you ever seen these before? Any ideas?

   


Seeing as I had my camera I couldn't resist taking a pic of the entry floor at the Bendigo Bakery. I think this is my new strange passtime. I do get funny looks.  




Well, it is fare thee well from this ol' chook.  Thanks so much for stopping by. Angel Blessings to you all
