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.

Tiny Rabbit

A few days ago I told you about my experiments with different yarns, if you missed that post you can catch-up by clicking here.

Today I thought I would give you a closer look at the smallest of that quartet.  This tiny rabbit is so sweet and she sits easily in the palm of your hand.


I had to scale down the dress pattern to get something which would fit her.  I think she looks very smart in this classic navy and white number.


This rabbit was made with Baby Soft 4 ply following Julie Williams 'Little Cotton Rabbit' pattern.  As you can see she comes up to the shoulder of the medium sized rabbit she is standing next to.  

I found it very hard to give her away.

  2. I am looking at your posts but can't comment on all of them... For some reason when I hit publish (the comment) it won't do it. So I click the comments section and it won't let me edit it. Then I have to click publish again and it finally goes through. I don't kno what is going on! I probably have to update something ugh.

    Have a great week! And I see your work I am not skipping by! :)

    1. Ah, it seems we are all having trouble publishing our comments. I thought it was just me until I read Pamellia's blog a couple of minutes ago. It is taking an exeptionally long time to publish after many of us click on the publish button. You are not alone in your frustration.

      Thank you for keeping pace with my blogging, I know it has been very hectic recently and I understand why you do not always leave a comment - but it is lovely when you do manage to leave a few words.

    1. She was so hard to part with, I am seriously thinking of making her twin for me to keep. The trouble is, the faces never come out the same twice, so her twin might have a very different personality. It's a chance you have to take I guess.
