Crafts - May 2021

[smallhobbit]

There's not that much to report regarding crafts for the month, although progress has been made.

I'm still, very slowly, knitting a small elephant (the size isn't the issue, the enthusiasm is), and I finished the daughter's hat, in time for her visit yesterday.  She was very pleased with it.  Photo of hat and then plus pompom.

 

There's plenty of wool left, so I shall make a smaller one for our granddaughter.  I'm also planning on doing some knitted squares for a throw.

I've written elsewhere about the Dare to Dabble paper flowers.

And my cross stitch of the bandstand at Tenby is progressing well.  I definitely think I shall do one of the others from the set as well.

Not mother and daughter but auntie and niece (granddaughter is my son's child).

Yes, the frame will certainly help - and there are certain backstitches to add as well.

Ooops, my mistake!

I'm a rare person in that I enjoy doing the backstitch part of a project. Most people hate it, but I love seeing the design come to life.
