Got some fabulous material from Dunelm (just my favourite shop), bit of sanding and some TLC and it'll should look top banana when it's done ... honest !

At some point I really must buy a sofa instead of getting ones given to me.

In fact - what a great idea - we could all post any winter projects that we have in mind - a great way to make sure that we keep on track and actually do some of them. _________________ Lottie the Allotment Lady Back to top Libby 4 Star Club Joined: 15 Aug 2006 Posts: 2134 Location: Wiltshire Posted: Mon Oct 02, 2006 8:50 am    Post subject: How super.

Knitted lovely soft scarf for mum for Xmas (in fact just finished it tonight) and then have been painting vegetables onto stones for my dad's Christmas stocking (vegetable markers for his allotment) .. oh and started a second night class - DIY course doing plastering, tiling, powertools, painting & decorating etc. But I have started to wrap my Christmas presents and I only have EIGHT more days left to work until January Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         The Potting Shed Forum Index -> Quilting and sewing All times are GMT + 1 Hour Goto page 1, 2  Next Page 1 of 2   Jump to: Select a forum Welcome----------------Introduce yourselfGetting to know you Chat----------------The potting shedOrganised eventsGet on your soapbox! In the garden and countryside----------------Garden and allotmentLivestock and petsGoing wildEnvironmental awareness At home and in the kitchen----------------Cooking and bakingPreserving and curingBeverages and brewsThe libraryLive a healthier lifeFamily lifeGood HousekeepingBe your own bossFrugality The studio and workshop----------------Quilting and sewingKnitting, weaving and crochetCard, paper and woodSoapmakingBead artAll Other CraftsCountdown to ChristmasThe darkroomThe workshopOffcut bin Miscellaneous----------------Forum help and practiceFeedback and announcementsForum calendarThe boutique  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum Card File  Gallery  Forum Archive Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2002 phpBB Group myff_thepottingshed3 style by ktauber
