Welcome to my Blog, a Crafting Year

Hello
I taught myself to knit in 2011 I have been posting photos of my knitting creations on facebook but as I am starting to bore my friends I have created this blog to record my progress. Then I thought I might try my hand at other crafts and see how I get along. I will try a different craft every month and you can read about my successes and failures and even laugh at my photos as I try different things like felting, crochet, sewing, papercrafts etc and try and make a few things from the kids favourite book Star Wars crafts, amongst others...lets see how it goes

the finished product

So here it is, the soap turned out of the moulds


Cornflower at the back then lavender then rose (left to right)


Bagged...


and labelled, although you can't see who to as that would spoil the surprise. I'm very happy with how they look and the boys like them to, just hope the teachers and TA's do. One down nine more to do so best get on with it.

I hope to try decoupage next but I am still trying to wrestle the comics off the boys so I may have to buy some more then hide them. I also have a small felting kit I want to try out. With the summer holidays fast approaching my 2 littlies have expressed an interest in learning to knit and crochet so I may try and teach them.....watch this space!
