Dressing up the couch.....Granny Style!
I have this 'thing' about polka dots. I simply love it!
When I bought the yarn, I didn't know what I wanted to do with it. I only knew I loved the colours.
Then I found this granny square pattern on Pinterest. Loads of free charts! I find it easier to follow the instructions if it is charted. I tend to get lost with so many words...lol! Do you know granny squares are so addictive?! Playing around with the different colours was so much fun!

Free yarn!
I was going through my wardrobe and started tossing out t-shirts that I have not been wearing for some time now. Some are still wearable but a little 'old' to toss into the charity box. Then I came across http://pinterest.com/pin/141019032055172782/ on one of the Pinterest boards I am following. Suddenly I see t-shirt yarn in front of me!.... and it's free!! I can do that!!!
And this is what I have done.
I'm doing the cut-as-you-crotchet method. (Don't think there is such a method ;) ) It gets a bit boring if I just cut and cut and roll and roll to get a ball of t-shirt yarn. Besides, I just couldn't wait to get the ball rolling! Hahaha!
One t-shirt down and on to the next till I get a big enough rug...or mat, for the kitchen...or bathroom. Oh dear, looks like I need more t-shirts!

Crotchet...a New Found Love
I have this thing about EPP...English Paper Piecing...hand stitching and the works. Lately, I have been hooked ...by the crotchet needle hook and granny squares!
Made this table topper....and yes, I also have this thing about table toppers. Most of my EPP projects are table toppers! Anyways, I simply love to crotchet now.
Check out my Pinterest Board for crotchet patterns...especially the granny squares!

The Crooked House
There once lived a crooked man in a crooked house...
in Windsor!
(no camera trick employed!)
Ok...so, I have been MIA for a long...long...time. Truth is, ever since my sweetheart gave me an Ipad, I have not been turning on my PC...fo a long...long...time. I have tried a few blogging apps. Apparently,it's not working out for me. Then, I found this...
If you find me blogging again, it worked!
