| Tote bag from Hus & Hem in Ledbury - a gift from lovely friend Liz |
I`ve learned this week that:
- it`s not a good idea to baste a quilt in a room only slightly larger than the quilt
- it`s equally not ideal to knit when you`re tired and/or in dim light
- if you are learning to knit, you shouldn`t knit a rib while talking to your 3 year old son
- I lose count quickly
- I can`t pick up stitches that well
- quilting requires patience
- knitting requires patience
- I have no patience
Thank goodness it`s Friday. Have you learned anything this week?
Annabella, what a week! You must be ready to toss the pins, needles, etc out the window! I've just learned that the oatmeal raisin muffin recipe I lifted from the Internet sucks big time - other than making you feel like you have a rock sitting in your stomach. What a waste!
ReplyDeleteah, its not easy with a young child, learning a new craft and all.
ReplyDeleteBasting is never easy even if the room is bigger - don't you think it's just the most horrible part of the process! (But at least it means your quilt is now ready to start quilting!)
ReplyDeleteI have learned that the blogging community of quilters is a loving and sensitive group.
ReplyDeleteI have learned absolutely nothing......
ReplyDeletemuch too tired
have given up knitting for the summer.
I was at school near Ledbury --rather a charming place as I recall
from 40years ago!
