Knitting

Hello everyone :) Sigh spring with its promise of warmth seems to have deserted us here in Ireland  it has turned very cold with lots of very cold wet rain :(  lol less than two weeks ago young people were out in tee-shirts I bet winter coats have been taken back out of cupboards : D.
I was very lucky and won some beautiful fabric and lace on Connie's giveaway. I Know I will find a use for these :) Conny has a wonderful blog with more giveaways and lots of great tutorials.

The fabric is so soft and pretty. I love the blue lace. 

Thank you very much Conny I am very happy with my wonderful prize.

I have been doing some more knitting lately it is something I am enjoying and I believe that I am getting better at it : D here is a few samples of my knitting.

Here it is on one of my dolls.

My first tiny booties.

This last one is crochet this I done from looking at pictures as for some reason I can not follow a crochet pattern lol believe me I have tried many times.

I hope you like :)

Progress on my house is going very slowly. I am doing the children's bedroom. Twins will own this room a boy and girl. I hope to have some pictures soon.

Thank you all for being here and for all the much appreciated comments.

Have a wonderful week.

Warm Hugs to all my Friends.

Sitting room pt 2

Hello everyone :) Spring has arrived here in Ireland. It has been lovely and sunny for a few days. Still cool in the evening but I don't mind that :) I just hope it gets rid of this flu and colds that everyone seems to have gotten. I wonder can these bugs travel through the internet ? as so many here in blogland seems to have been unwell lol.
I have just about finished my sitting room I guess like most of you we are never truly finished a room and will always find some little item that just has to go in there : D

I put books and records (prints from the internet) in the TV cabinet.

My coffee table all ready to receive a guest who the family is expecting :)))

I knitted the throw on the armchair.

The cushions are gifts.

This is the window sill. Some room for a little something here don't you thing lol.

I hope you like my little tour I do still have to get a ceiling light (battery) for it and a few little touch ups here and there but I am very happy with this room and I have had a lot of fun with it. It gave me a lift when this very long lasting cold had me feeling low.

Thank you all very much for your visits and always beautiful comments I appreciate them very much.

Have a wonderful weekend and Monday a  Happy St. Patrick's Day whether you celebrate it or not : D
