But there was a set back, I have not been able to find my crochet flowers book at all!! Anyone would think we live in a disorganised mess... Oh wait, we do!!
So that threw me, I was stuck, I didn't know what to do...
On the plus side, whilst searching through boxes and the garage I did come across my long lost stuffing.
So a project did manage to get completed, just not the one I expected.
Remember my Owlie, that lay flat and abandoned, he has now fully come to life.
And another surprise I found another WIP that i'd forgotten about, Mummy and Baby Owl.
In the time that I was deliberating what to make I paid attention to my mood blanket. I had stopped joining the squares, and realised the reason why, was that I wasn't keen on a couple of squares, so I decided to change them for the better, sticking with the original colours of course...
The squares on the left are the new versions, and i'm much happier with them, so I have now got my joining all up to date.
And I had a great find in our local BHF store, this lovely seat, which opens up, for just £5. I'm not sure whether to revarnish it and keep it its original colour or whether to give it a shabby chic make-over? Either way it will of course be having a crochet, cushion top...
This weeks mood square.
Grey = feeling melancholy, lilac = relaxed, pink = giggles and cuddles with hubby
I love that owl! so cute :)
ReplyDeleteMe too!!! I can just imagine loads of them, all a little different sat in a line! Owls are just so popular at the moment. xx
ReplyDeleteI love it too! I just looked at the original post to see if there was a pattern but there wasn't. It's so cute - can you remember where you got the pattern? The stool is a very good find - what a bargain!
ReplyDeleteI'm voting for a shabby chic makeover on the seat. x
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what you do with your stool
ReplyDeleteLove the little owl now he is plumped out. The stool is a great find. I would also go for shabby chic.
ReplyDeleteOh i love how your mood blanket is coming along! Its going to be soooo gorgeous when its finished!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you managed to finish off your lovely owls :) x
I love owls, they're always so popular too. Your mood square for this week is lovely, as always.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant that you finished a project while looking for another! Cute little owls.
ReplyDeleteYou know, some of the Best WIPs are the ones that get to "ferment" for a bit! :-D
ReplyDeleteThat said, I have to start storing mine in CLEAR bags... My "stash" is beginning to look like an archaeological site!
I love your stuffed owl. Rather reassuring others have difficulty locating their craft supplies!!
