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.

Baby Doll's Jumper

A very quick post as the builders are due here any minute.

If you are a regular, you will know that I have been using up several spools of 3 ply, which my sister gave to me, to make cloths for my youngest nieces doll collection.  This jumper used up some of the yarn I had let over at the end of this very long project!


I have to confess that I cannot remember which pattern I used or even if I made it up as I went along!

I just have time to wash up the cup etc from my morning coffee before the builders get here.

    1. Thank you Carol, I enjoy using up odds and ends of my yarn, I guess I got that from my mum who grew up during the war.

    1. Thank you Faith, you cannot really see from the photo but it has little buttons at the shoulders. (Don't want to have to pull the doll's head off to dress her!)
