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.

Advent Countdown - Day 10

This month is rapidly passing, it is the 10th already, and time is running out.  Are you ready for the holiday's?  I know I am not, I am still making my Christmas cards.  I spent the summer making the Advent presents I have been sharing with you for the past week or so.


Today with have this pretty beret, with a heart border and an attractive red tassel.  If you are thinking that you have seen this pattern somewhere before, cast your mind back to Day 2 and the pantaloons with the heart decoration.

This beret is made from 4 ply cotton and pattern is from Mary Jane's Tearoom Anika Rabbit pattern.

I will be back tomorrow with a bit more of this seasonal wardrobe.
