Welcome


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.

Little Boy Blue

I have the last of my pre-Christmas bears to share with you today.  I made three little bears and two rabbits as presents for some of my young friends, but my timing was very tight and I only had time to grab a quick photograph before wrapping them and sending them off to their new homes.


This little bear is one of Julie Williams patterns, this one is called 'Boy Bear' and it is available from Ravelry.


He is made of a powder blue baby double knit and his clothes are made of cotton 4 ply.

      Thank you so much Carol, the jumper was of my own design - sometimes I get a little carried away. It is a faux Aran design.

    Oh isn't this little guy precious! Love his bold and bright outfit! The soft blue is such a great colour, so comforting for a stuffed animal! hugs :)

      Thank you.

      If you look closely at all of the bears, you will see that, because of the nature of the knitted fabric, each nose is very different. I think this gives each bear a different personality.

    I like the colors! And very vibrant colors too! You should make a little tie or put buttons on his shirt...how cute would that be!
