Well I hope everyone is settling into 2009 nicely. I’m super busy in the “real world” at the moment so blogging is a little bit down the priority list. Crafting however is still up there around the top and I have two projects in mind for this book which I bought recently. I cannot wait to get started.
I’ve also been busy making the wedding invitations for Margaret and JD’s Big Day Out, only the evening invites to go now. All supplies were bought from Daintree, and the ones I made were similar to the (a) in the picture but the colours are different. They were nice and simple to make but they look very elegant.

Oh, this book is exactly what I need; I don’t have enough time for anything more time consuming than squares; off to Amazon with me

have you ever seen the colourful crocheted afghan pattern called ‘babette’? it’s really lovely. looks like something you’d see someone wrapped up in while hugging someone in a klimt painting.
here’s some people’s pics on flickr about it:

Cathy, they are perfect for a busy lifestyle! I’m so up the walls at the moment, they are all I can commit to
Heather, thanks so much for leaving a comment. Firstly I love those blankets, I hadn’t heard of them or seen them before and now I’m intrigued! And secondly thanks for the link to your blog, I love it.

[...] is a very fine crochet yarn and I used a 2mm hook. The pattern was a border suggestion from the squares book that I keep banging on [...]
