My blog is in memory of my lovely cheeky little cockerel Denzil. (Named after one of my favourite actors) He died last autumn. I never thought a little chicken could have such a presence in our family life, but he did!
I really miss his crafty little visits into our house, watching him perch on the log basket in the kitchen and warming himself next to the fire or the sight of him running across the lawn when he heard me opening the back door on returning home from work. He loved a cuddle and a fuss and I have happy memories of him sat between my daughter and I, enjoying a spot of sun while we crafted away.
I work full time but enjoy making lots of things and hope to share this on my blog. I shall endeavour to post at least once a week and would be more than happy to share information, provide any help and to share lovely things and ideas that I come across.

Finished!!!!

I've finished, I'm so pleased. I broke the back of what I had left to finish yesterday. Today I just had to finish half the mountains tonight. Now it's ready to go to the framers on Wednesday, hopefully to be ready for the 26th.
I wanted to post my other one that I completed last year. Another Rowandean it's called 'Footpath to Quarndon'

It's really lovely, the colours are beautiful and the foxgloves are a mixture of embroidery and shredded stitched chiffon. 
Just a short post tonight. Up early to fit in a hospital appointment before work to collect my pair of glamorous compression over the knee stockings. Hopefully an improvement on my knee high ones. 
My beautiful mohair throw is coming along and I've started my blue cotton Debbie Bliss teddy blanket. Although the cotton I bought on the cone is not the easiest to knit with. I'm going to make it a fairly small blanket. Then I'll probably use the rest to crochet up a pattern from one of my Nostalgic Peter Pan Crochet pattern books. 
Nite ...

  2. Thank you. I dropped it off Monday it will be ready in a week and he's going to mount the same way as my others for £23. Isn't that good value and service! Did you recognise Footpath to Quarndon ?
