Dog Sweater







This dog sweater pattern was easy to follow and a quick knit.
Our dog maybe could have used a longer neck.

It was knit out of a green 100% wool from Nature's Way.

Quilted Wall hanging

This project took many years to complete because "I just couldn't get around to it".  I don't think I even like it anymore but it's done.

It's called 'Narrow Cupboard' and is a paper piecing project from the book 'Cups and Saucers' by Maaike Bakker.

Egg gathering apron


My sister, who raises chickens, posted an egg gathering apron on Facebook the other day.  I searched around and found this youtube video with the pattern.

Even though it was in metric I figured it out and came up with this.






I'll have her try it out and see how practical it is.
