I've made half a rockinghorse this year and painted a backdrop for a display. Others have made hundreds of dollars by their efforts.

In fact if you use waterproof bandaids they'll even stay on through a load of washing.<br /><br />Uhh...

Just don't the let the word "Simplicity" fool you when it comes to patterns. Not sure if you have that brand in Australia, but it draws me in a lot.<br />I'm taking my first crochet class in a couple of weeks. My friend at church makes prayer shaws and then the pastors at our church take them to shut-ins. So she's looking for recruits. I of course raised my hand. (there's a post about that on my blog) hehe.<br />Anyway, glad your creative and enjoy it. I have tons of supplies up stair, if only I would spend time doing any of it.<br />♥<br />JoyJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11198238631600746173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21617402.post-82318078780728730092009-10-28T07:42:43.399+11:002009-10-28T07:42:43.399+11:00Ha ha, true!Ha ha, true!Givinya De Elbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07746896375826415145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21617402.post-44196941141236065512009-10-28T07:16:50.109+11:002009-10-28T07:16:50.109+11:00I can't help but quote Givinya...

Hahaha<br /><br />As a mummy of 3 who loves to sew, my secret is.... <i>Ignoring the children and hoping they go away.</i><br /><br />AND... I saw some of that handiwork too - only online, but golly! Those knits are pretty clever. I have no patience for such things ;)<br /><br />I guess that makes you talented too! heheScurrettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11368709293615147105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21617402.post-67126934265670269802009-10-27T23:50:21.341+11:002009-10-27T23:50:21.341+11:00i love that you fix your hems with a bandaid!! heh...i love that you fix your hems with a bandaid!! hehe that's SO cool!!!Swift Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04508120826182596977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21617402.post-17269628581079634072009-10-27T22:56:31.239+11:002009-10-27T22:56:31.239+11:00I was at Playgroup today with heaps of friends, al...I was at Playgroup today with heaps of friends, all of whom sew, scrapbook or crochet.<br /><br />They are all very nice and I have nothing in common with them.<br /><br />But you - your knitting is so neat and perfect and awesome!
