Weavers Tapestry Band Sampler SAL: Part 35

Welcome back for part 35 of the Weavers Tapestry Band Sampler SAL! I found out last Thursday that my brother died of lung cancer so there wasn't a Friday freebie but as you can see the Weavers is here on schedule. This week brings the start of the next animal band - it's another of the bigger bands and will take eight weeks to stitch.

Weavers Tapestry Band Sampler SAL: Part 34

Welcome back for part 34 of the Weavers Tapestry Band Sampler SAL! I'm sorry this is late, I'm ill and completely forgot it was Tuesday yesterday. This week sees the second and last part of band eight! I do hope you like it.

Friday Freebie: Dragon Dots

Happy Friday - more or less, for some of you it might be Saturday by the time you see this. I'm running a bit later than usual as I got caught up stitching on the Viking Dragon (If you haven't seen him yet go check out my Instagram or look below)

Weavers Tapestry Band Sampler SAL: Part 33

Welcome back for part 33 of the Weavers Tapestry Band Sampler SAL! This week is the first part of the eighth band! How exciting is that?!? It's a two week band and not much can be seen this week - as it's so short I'm not showing the full band this week.

Friday Freebie on a Saturday: Fob a Month - August

Welcome to the eighth edition of the Fob a Month for 2018! This month I was inspired by poppies! I adore poppies in all the colours they come in but for this month I decided to go with the common wild poppy here in Europe. The bright red with black centres is so distinctive and cheerful.

Weavers Tapestry Band Sampler SAL: Part 32

Welcome back for part 32 of the Weavers Tapestry Band Sampler SAL! Although it's still far too hot I've finally managed to get stitching again, though on my Viking Dragon not this project - but at least I'm stitching again! I'm sure you are all curious what this week's pattern will bring so without further ado.....

Friday Freebie: Ornament of the Month - August

Welcome back for the eighth Ornament of the Month! The sun wants to turn us all into human fricassee or something by the feel of things - it's still roasting hot! As I'm writing this it's almost 6:30 pm and it's a toasty 33C/91.5 f ! I'm not getting much stitching done as a result - my needle keeps slipping between my rather sweaty fingers - not nice! I am so glad I got a fan to help cool things a bit (but sadly not enough to stitch as much as I'd like).
