Haberdashery, Embroidery Hoop and Truro Cathedral

I’m lining up creative things to do for my recovery time after my next hip op next week. I have new wool and a whole bunch of pretty ribbons as well as some colourful star shaped buttons for one of my projects.

Truro Cathedral is always beautiful, even in the constant downpour that we have had today.

First Frost, Clouds and A Baby Hoodie

3   I’ve finished the baby hoodie for next April’s arrival. This one should fit just as the Autumn comes in about September time. I’m stocking up on various sizes!  These colourful buttons used to be on cardigans worn by the expectant Mum and her twin brother when they were very little. The elephants were his and the ladybirds, hers.
