Textile Exhibition

Come along for afternoon tea and see my work.

 

For all out of the area, its in Warrington, Cheshire WA1 3TP.

Tatting

Just wanted to add a couple of pictures of some tatting that my nan did for me over 30 years ago.  I tried to learn by myself but in the end I needed her help, kept getting the knots on the wrong thread lol.  I am adding these as I have just joined a tatting circle and I am hoping to teach others this sadly dying out craft.

Finished scarf

Finished the scarf, decided against putting tassles on the ends.

Dog Coats and Scarf

Back finished on another dog coat, suprised that the colour isn't very popular.  I love greens and yellows but it seems others don't lol.

 Pinks and purples may be more welcome.  Looks a bit like my hair.

 Taking a break from knitting with a crochet scarf.  Another order from a friend, it will match her umbrella.

Knitting in progress

My knitting orders have suddenly taken off, must be the cold weather.  I have nearly finished the pink jacket, just have the rest of the right front to finish so should have that done this week.

Also a small dog coat, just finished.  Now I have orders for five more, but large ones!

I still have orders for my poncho jumper, scarf, bootees, slippers and a stitched purse and bag!

Busy busy busy, so nice and I am so grateful.

While sorting my workroom/studio out I came across a nearly finished jumper.  I thought only cats destroyed knitting, but Dolly has been having some fun.  Luckily its only the ball of wool and not the jumper!

 As my dog patterns haven't arrived yet I have started on my next knitting order, my daughter wants a pink jacket for Christmas, is this pink enough lol.

I have also had an order for another knitted poncho style jumper, this one will also be in pink.  What is it with pink lately, everything seems to be wanted in pink!

Finished Jumper

I have finished Fem's Jumper.  I thought I should get cracking now the colder weather is approaching.  Photo does not do it justice really, its a poncho style jumper. I just hope she likes it or I will be selling it and making something else lol.

I have some orders for dog coats, so I will start on those and leave Christmas present knitting for now.
