Today my glamorous assistant is joined in her Advent fun by two new friends - Girl Cat and Girl Mouse. Both of these Julie Williams patterns are available from Ravelry.
I hope you enjoy the rest of the holidays.

Cross Stitch, knitting, crochet, dressmaking, card making, scrapbook and wedding stationery.
Hello, my name is Dionne and I have been crafting for a very long time. As a very young child my mother tried to teach me to knit, it was a disaster. However, it must have sparked an interest in making things and, partly to prove that I was not totally useless and partly because I really wanted to make things, I taught myself to crochet. Over the years I have developed a love of cross stitch and all types of paper craft ..... I eventually even taught myself to knit.
I am married to a very understanding man, thank goodness, because I spend all my time either crafting, thinking about crafting or talking about crafting. I am hopeless at housework and dinner is often late!
Thank you for visiting my blog.

Oh my, I love this trio. The long tails are so cute, especially the mouse one and I live the detail of her black patent (I imagine!)shoes.Those little ice creams are fabulous but I also live those statement flowers with their bejewelled centres. What a fabulous Christmas present to us all. X
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. I learnt a new technique knitting the mouse tail, it was just like French knitting but using grown-up needles.
DeleteI love the idea of patent shoes, what a lark. I wish you could see that lettuce hem better, you would adore it.

So adorable! Great picture of all three
ReplyDeleteThank you, they do look as if they are skipping down the road, don't they.
