Happiness is found when you stop comparing yourself to other people.
I promise I will not show off about being on holidays once
again. My holidays start with caring for my sons girlfriend who yesterday sat
in the dentist chair and had 4 wisdom teeth extracted. Bravo Emma! Such a
strong girl to face what I would consider terrifying. Today she is recovering
well and I am so proud of her.π
I am also proud of my sonπ for his support of Emma and going
in the room with her while the procedure went on. All my suffering was.....π
being offered a cup of tea and a biscuit!!!!! from the receptionist! I even ate the biscuit!! It was a lovely cup of coffee. π
So one of my latest orders was to knit a pretty doll and some clothing and accessories to go with her. Here she is....how beautiful! This little treasure is knitted in 8 ply yarn with very bright colours. I am so very happy with how she turned out.
Also growing well is my collection of knitted finger less mittens.
Here I demonstrate how the mitt fits.
While on holidays I have already planned my main projects.
One will be to clean out my wardrobe of old clothing and those not suiting my
body right now. I also plan to re arrange my storage system in the sewing shed.
Emma has offered me these glass jars and of course I will find something to put
in them.
One thing I am thankful for is finding wonderful friends in
blog land as their creations and craft inspire me. Even if I don't get to make
everything I see, I can get ideas. Recently I visited a favourite blog and
found some crochet blocks. I looked at the drawn instructions and decided to
give the pattern a go. I was pretty sure I would not be able to make this but I
did. Visit this beautiful blog...click here.π
Friends, sometimes we are our own enemies. We doubt ourselves and don't live our dreams. I put my own doubts aside and gave it a go with this pattern. And look.....
These little balls of yarn will turn into something fantastic and I can't wait.
I thought I would sneak up on Milo being very interested in some creature in the garden.
Sprung Milo!!!!!! Got you!!!!
That
beautiful face!
Not
when you dig up my garden naughty boy
Well, if you can't beat them join them. I will be naughty
too. πWithout saying too much.....only could I find such a book with this
title. For my Italian friends when you translate "Fuzzy doodle".
Now I am leaving you to annoy everyone in my household....just because I want to and it will be fun.π π
A good Sunday to you all.
Ciao, Anita. ...
