Good Morning All
It was Johns birthday last week and this is the card I made for him
LOTV topper of a cute footy player as he is footy mad and his team is Liverpool, hence the red background.
I used two pieces of scrap card and hid the join with hemp ribbon.
I added his name with peeloffs.
I little while ago I treated myself to some lovely Chunky wool from the craft shop as I wanted to make a pocket shawl for winter.
Here it is all finished.
So pleased with the end result and Liz from the craft shop loved it too and asked to make her one, which I did last weekend.
We had a binge TV day last Sunday and I crocheted most of it then and finished in the week, she was so happy with it.
This is it.
And now one of my Craft Club ladies has asked me to make her one too.
Busy busy busy.
This guy was perched on our garage wall, he has been there for about 4 days.
Is it a grasshopper?
it is about 4 inches long.

I wouldn't like to say what that fellow is Wendy but he doesn't look to appealing.
ReplyDeleteA perfect card for John, I imagine he's as worried as us about the mounting injury problems.

Lovely card for John and love the pocket shawls. Brilliant idea. Can I ask what size it is please? Not seen anything like that. Not surprised you have had orders. Wouldn’t be surprised if you have more.
ReplyDeleteLovely card and two super shawls Wendy; no idea what the insect is?
ReplyDeleteOh he's a nasty looking beastie Wendy, I'd freak out if he was in my home.
ReplyDeleteYour card for John is fabulous, that little guy is one of my favourites from LOTV.
What wonderful shawls, your crochet work is amazing, Kate x
hi Wendy,
ReplyDeletewhat a brilliant card for a brilliant person and that image is such a super one and so sweet.
I could just see John as that little boy too.
I do hope he had a wonderful Birthday even in these uncertain times as he is such a lovely person.
You shawls look stunning and very warm no wonder you are getting orders.
My your beastie looks nasty I would freak out if that was near me but saying that one year many moons ago hubby and I were on a boating holiday near Cambridge.
We decided to have a picnic not far from the boat and I had a green blouse on with like brown branches as a pattern to it.
Suddenly I felt a tickle on my arm and looked to see what it was well it was the most beautiful colured beatle and he was quite large too I was just mesmerised so hubby caught it gently and put it under a tree a few minutes later it was back on my arm again.
Hubby couldn't believe how I didn't freak out and knock it off my arm as I have been known to do a Indian Dance or two if a spider gets on me. lol.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
What a gorgeous card, adorable image. Such a beautiful shawl Wendy, love the pattern. I am not surprised you have been asked to make more. That is a big grasshopper xx
