SOME OF MY KNITTED MAKES


Easter was over in a blink. But having hubby home managed to get a few more jobs done.
One unexpected job was a water leak in our en suite which is above the kitchen. So you have
guessed it. We had a bucket in the kitchen with water dripping down. Tried to find a plumber
but did not have any luck. Finally hubby found the problem and fingers crossed water has stopped.
The water has left brown marks from one side of the room to the other. So today even though
it was a beautiful sunny day I stayed home and started to repair and paint  the ceiling. I had
 the front door open all day with the sun shining in. The dogs loved it just going in and out
as they pleased. But you know me when I had finished the ceiling it made everything else look
drab so I did the walls and started on the skirting /woodwork as well. (Still to finish).

Today I thought I would show you some of my makes.

It started with Archie and Blossom small teddies. Then I have gone on to dogs with coats
all named after my dogs. Next doggie key rings and tiny doggie brooches..











 
 
Then I knitted some bunting and added material pictures to each one.
Also made more knitted chains.


In this picture you can see lots of Archie and Blossom teddies and my monsters.



I made some hanging birds large and small. And of course lots of hearts and pom pom
key rings.




                              And of course some small rag wreaths.
















I have stopped making any more as they are taking over the house.
I think I need to find a  Craft Fair and see if  any of them will sell .


  I am now getting creative with fancy dress costumes for Archie and Blossom for
 fun dog shows. And making never ending jumpers as they do not last long before
 they get tatty.

Well another day of painting tomorrow. Then at least the kitchen is back to normal.

ARCHIE AND BLOSSOM BEING SUPER CUTE

I do not know where the time is going.I can not believe we are in April already.
I am finding less time to do all the things I like doing. I do not know if it is because I am more busy
or not organising my time well........

I must admit if the weather is good I tend to make the most of it and find lots of things to do outside.
I am always making knitting, crafting everyday. Head is full of ideas. Trying to have a Spring clean
but that is going so slow. Garden needs a good sort out but that is start stop.
And now Dog Shows are beginning so making fancy dress outfits for Archie and Blossom.
The dog shows will take up my weekends soon. (But I love them).
Easter I went to two Fun Dog Shows came first for Archie and Blossoms fancy dress and that weekend came home with 10 rosettes!

And I have just started doing instagram mainly of our dogs and that is so time consuming
as most of you will know but I am hooked. (It is under Primrosesatticblog) If you love dog
pics take a look.


But to give you a taste of my doggie pics here are a few cute ones of Archie and Blossom.
Archie is now 16 months and weighs 3 lbs. Blossom is 11 months and weighs 6 lbs.



































All outfits (including dolls) were made by me. Blossom loves her bows and hairbands.



























 
 
They are my tiny stars.

Hope you have enjoyed these cute pics.

PRESENT FROM MY DAUGHTER.

Yet another beautiful day in Cornwall today. Went out for coffee with Archie and Blossom and
did not wear a coat!

I love days like these, everyone seems to be so much more happier and friendly.

I was very lucky recently as I got a lovely present from my daughter.

My daughter when she has time (between Uni work) likes to enter a few competitions
And has won some really good prizes.

This one she entered and won. But sent the prize to me.

And what did she win -------















I am a lucky Mummy. These are just the perfect present for me living in the countryside.

DAUGHTERS BIRTHDAY.

Was up early today. Dogs decided Mum was not going to get a lie in.
It was a beautiful warm and sunny day in Cornwall, dogs was loving the garden and I even
cut some grass. Did a small photo shot of the dogs for instragram, and did some housework.
In the afternoon son drove into Plymouth for the first time loads of traffic but he coped with
it well. He enjoyed going over his first raised bridge the Tamar and paying his first toll.
You pass your driving test but then you carry on learning for many years after,


This is another old post I forgot to put up.
Then after this I can get more into a routine again, so please keep with me..


Another Birthday this time my daughters (Which was in December)









The dogs wanted to help open her presents.











And my baby is now 27.






The marble cake worked, thank goodness. And it is all gone now.

We all had a wonderful day .





I hope you have had a wonderful day. Enjoy the good weather while it lasts.

A FEW NEW BITS FOR THE HOME



My home maybe full but there is always room for a few more bits.

This is my new bunny who has taken up a spot on my record player.







This is a new wall hanging/picture. It is a glass picture made by a very talented
craft lady. Love the flowers and the colours were perfect for my house.





I picked these up. The sweet sign is on my sweet tree now. And the pretty thing sign is on
my tree in the kitchen. Love the colourful letters.











My sweet tree, which I have put on a wooden tray which gets filled with sweets,
everyday. Because the sweets seem to vanish! The cloth angel I found at a charity
shop. I added the heart.
