Love Natalie.......: July 2014
http://lovenatalieuk.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
For all things homemade - knitting, sewing, cakes and cookies. And lots inbetween! Sunday, 27 July 2014. I've had it today! I did all the boring things in life yesterday so that today I could indulge myself completely - and I have! Where would we be without a small amount of washing, ironing and cooking but I don't expect miracles. Sewing punctuated with cups of tea and a sneaky chapter of a good book ( Book of Life by Deborah Harkness if you were wondering) - the Perfect Day. So what do I do? My other s...

Love Natalie.......: February 2014

For all things homemade - knitting, sewing, cakes and cookies. And lots inbetween! Sunday, 23 February 2014. I finished my blocks! That doesn't give me that long to get all the sashing done, the quilting and the binding. I'm sure she won't mind if I run a little over time, but I will endeavour to get it finished before her big day. The last 2 blocks I made were another wonky star and a log cabin (this will be my block as part of the Little Blog Quilt Bee in August so I wanted a practice). I did take some...

Love Natalie.......: King Cole Cardigan
http://lovenatalieuk.blogspot.com/2014/09/king-cole-cardigan.html
For all things homemade - knitting, sewing, cakes and cookies. And lots inbetween! Tuesday, 9 September 2014. With more than a little help from my Mum, I've finished a cardigan to keep me warm through the winter. It was a King cole DK pattern and was quite straightforward - until I got involved! So how come I ended up with a back and 2 front pieces all different lengths? Remember my catchphrase for 2014? Finished is better than perfect? 10 September 2014 at 10:03.

Love Natalie.......: Handmade Fair at Hampton Court
http://lovenatalieuk.blogspot.com/2014/09/handmade-fair-at-hampton-court.html
For all things homemade - knitting, sewing, cakes and cookies. And lots inbetween! Tuesday, 23 September 2014. Handmade Fair at Hampton Court. I booked my tickets ages ago for this event and have so been looking forward to the day. And it totally lived up to my expectations. My friend and I arrived nice and early so that we were there when it opened. The picture above is of Kirsty just be fore she cut the ribbon to open the fair - she was explaining how they had asked for (and had been provided with!

Love Natalie.......: October 2013

For all things homemade - knitting, sewing, cakes and cookies. And lots inbetween! Sunday, 27 October 2013. Thank you for all the lovely comments last week about my gift tags. I realise that many of you have paper crafting skills that far exceed my own but Gertie asked how I had made them so here is a mini tutorial:. I then put the glue along the edges of the greeting that I wanted to use. Couldn't be simpler really although I was surprised when Mum showed me just how easy this was. In other crafty news,...

Love Natalie.......: April 2014

For all things homemade - knitting, sewing, cakes and cookies. And lots inbetween! Sunday, 27 April 2014. Little Blog Quilt Bee Block #2. As we approach the end of April I thought I'd share with you a picture of my wonky log cabin block, the April Block in the LBQB. Sunday, 20 April 2014. This is the first one I made. The pattern calls for fusible interfacing to be used, with the option of fusible fleece as well. This one has the interfacing only so is less sturdy than the other but I'm using it ...That'...

For all things homemade - knitting, sewing, cakes and cookies. And lots inbetween! Sunday, 3 November 2013. A VERY Scary Pumpkin Indeed. Half term week went out with a bang this term, finishing as it did with Halloween and a fireworks display. I have managed to finish a Christmas gift during the week but cannot show it yet so just a brief post from me. I have little more to show than this. The scariest pumpkin around! And Cruella de Ville without the gorgeous bag that someone made for her last week.

Readers of my blog on Monday will remember that I mentioned another summer holiday craft project that was "finished". In truth, I've only finished the top so far but I think that counts, doesn't it? I've now washed the backing fabric and sorted my batting so I'm ready to get on with basting and quilting but I wanted to share this project with you all the same. Stay in her PJ...
