Crochet

 Hi

Happy Birthday to me.

Yes I am, sshhhhh, 68 years old today.

John is taking me out for a meal to a new Italian restaurant across the road from where we live, so that will be nice.

A couple of crochet blankets to show you today, both going to the charity next Winter.

This is a lovely star blanket by Hooked by Robin on You Tube.  Odds left over from other projects.

Very pretty.

This is odds aswell, a pattern from Fiber Spider on You tube.

Both lovely Blankets.

Groovi Christmas

 Hi

Days are flying by and it will soon be Christmas!!!!!!!

My crafty friend Eve, bought me a set of 'Twas The Night ' pre printed parchment toppers from Claritystamp for my Christmas gift last year.

They are ready to use as they are or you can remove some of the ink from the reverse side to make it white on the front, like the one on the left.

I  added a square embossed border and abit of grid work.

Here is one made into a card with a grid border.

I love them.

Groovi Again

 Hi

Following my last few posts I have more Groovi for you today.

These are 8x8 so will be kept for my own use.

This one is one of the French Grid plates with a seperate piece for the middle.

A simple border on this one and a Japanese lady in the middle.

Again, a simple border and seperate centre piece of a boy on a swing.

I love both these plates, the large grid and one the the Japanese collection.

I hope you like them.

 Hi

My Craft Group challenge is another Groovi card using an Owl plate and the theme is 

A Man Card

I did alot of Groovi when I was laid up with my sore foot so now I am making all the pieces into cards.

I loved doing this one as I love all the snipping out.

I thought the leaf brads fitted quite well too-
