Rosie Posie Cover .. it’s late …I’m tired ..

It’s late … I’m tired … it’s been a very mixed sort of weekend. There has been good – the Parish Fete at Stokenham and there has also been very bad – I really thought I was going to lose Amy on Saturday.

I had also been planning to write up a tutorial for the Three Little Kittens needle roll I made earlier this week – that’s it above – and if you look carefully you can see a crochet radish – yes – I think I’ve finally mastered basic crochet at last. I’m making some radish corsages to go with last week’s carrots – just right for those keen gardeners amongst us.

But, after the vet and the fete and my stint on the scales at our local fruit farm where I’m helping out by weighing the pick your own strawberries (and being paid in fruit and vegetables -yum!) I felt washed out and unable to concentrate on detailed instructions. So I decided to write up a brief tutorial for a really really easy journal cover. This one’s slightly different in that it’s made in felted blanket and is all sewn by hand. The blue blanket I used felted extremely well. Unfortunately I was not trying to felt it at the time! Never mind, it’s coming in handy for all sorts of projects.

And yes, I’ve been playing with my wonderful stash of felt from Annie at the Felt Fairy again – those colours are simply irresistible! Hope you like the cover – you can download it free by clicking here .

Will have to have another giveaway soon – and bring back the canine random biscuit selector! Amy so loved choosing the winning biscuit …. I’ll just have to decide on the prize – check back next week for more information – and until then – I’ll leave you with a photo of the owner of the biscuit selecting paw….

Amy!!
