I heart Zurich: October 2012

http://iheartzurich.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html

Sunday, 21 October 2012. I have been busy today. I have never previously been overly interested in 'home decor' and I don't think that I am ever going. To be 'overly interested', but I have a few things which I have been working on lately and have posted here, such as curtain panels. I am going to keep my eyes open for more fabric which appeals and also for trimmings- a relatively low-cost way of adding some. Tuesday, 9 October 2012. Go find the kinda blog you hoped you were getting! I then used Bias Tap...

I heart Zurich: April 2014

http://iheartzurich.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html

Friday, 25 April 2014. Coming to a blog near you. I am quite often late on the bandwagon. In this case it is with the sweet little Sorbetto https:/ www.colettepatterns.com/sewing/sorbetto. I did have plans to do it in a great Zombie fabric but I 'put it away' and can't find it. Never mind, I am sure there will be more than one of these on the go. The pattern was very easy to download and piece together, I hate the thought of having to do the same with something more complicated. Saturday, 12 April 2014.

I heart Zurich: August 2014

http://iheartzurich.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html

Tuesday, 12 August 2014. Not much going on. Things have been quiet-ish here. Well, on the craft side. Pain-wise it has been crap. But enough of that, I am doing a little sewing knitting etc. This is the very simple 9-patch block (with a pinwheel square). I usually like to make this into a 'disappearing 9-patch' but I think it is busy enough as it is. T. I have also made four 'Ruby' Tops, designed by 'Made by Rae'. Here is the latest:. The fabric is from Michael Miller. Aptly named 'Giraffe Love' ;0).

Wednesday, 26 September 2012. I have another in the freezer, a portion of chicken stew without the cobbler topping also in the freezer plus two lots of.hmm.can't think of the words. mirepoix. Ready to form the base of some soup. When my energy is limited I like to make the most of it. Wednesday, 12 September 2012. Also known as 'feather and fan,' Old Shale is an old, well-known stitch pattern common in Shetland shawls. It is to be found in Hap Shawls. And was where Brooklyn Tweed's Baby Blanket. The rema...

Sunday, 22 February 2015. This is much better than it looks. I have a much under-utilised food processors- right now the name escapes me and I can't be bothered going to the kitchen to look ;o) It is possibly a Cuisinart. Anyway (part 3) if I can get my phone and Mac talking to each other I will post a pic. Here goes. It worked. What a PITA- I have to do so much fiddling about that I cannot remember what I did).

I heart Zurich: April 2013

http://iheartzurich.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html

Monday, 29 April 2013. I won't be alone in having enjoyed the recent BBC programme 'The Great British Sewing Bee.'. I can sew already, and indeed I have been sewing various home dec projects, such as this cushion cover:. I have a fair fabric stash and a number of clothing patterns I wish to sew this year. I have been waiting until I lost some weight- who wants to put in a lot of effort to sew something beautiful, only to find that 2 months later it doesn't fit. So (sew? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

http://iheartzurich.blogspot.com/2014/05/ruby.html

Tuesday, 6 May 2014. Instead, I bit the bullet and bought Ruby, designed by' Made by Rae.' The pattern download went smoothly and I was happy to see that the various sizes have different coloured outlines. The instructions were very clear and I would recommend this as a good beginner project, easily whipped up in an afternoon if you are an experienced needlewoman. here is Ruby I. And here, under construction is Ruby II. Labels: Made by Rae. 7 May 2014 at 02:24. I love your fabric choices :).
