Thank you so much for all your wonderful suggestions of places to visit and stay when I go to Florida. We have had a slight hiccup with my parents passports, they don' have 6 months left on them. Consequently they have been sent off for renewal and we are just waiting it out, waiting for them to come back. Once they are back we can then go forward and book the holiday.
I have actually done more crochet than I had thought...
A few more rows, some form of border and then it will be finished. All ready for the new arrival.
I have been browsing Cath Kidston craft books for some inspiration, looking for some ideas for little gifts for my daughters when they visit.
I have also gone back to reading Kerosene by Chris Wooding, a book I started a few weeks ago but was so busy didn't really get into it. It is a raw, emotional read and deserves more time than I have at the moment.
I am once again joining in with
Ginny over at Small Things. What are you creating? Looking forward to seeing what is on your needles/hooks...
See you soon.
the crochet blanket is beautiful - that stitch looks very time consuming. Do you have a little grandchild on the way? I so look forward to that time - all the knitting I'll be able to do for them :-) Looked up your book - it sounds soooo intense. Hope you find just the right projects for your girls - Cath Kidston is very inspiring.
