Last night I found my time management skills. I have a few projects on the go and because I am sooooo impatient I though I would do two things at once.
I have been wanting to make a crochet roll for all my hooks - as this is a new craft I am into thanks to certain inspiring bloggers such as Lara - Thornberry - just from reading her site I have wanted to do some crochet - well I can certainly say that I am now finding heaps of projects that I want to do, but at the same time have to make sure they are in my capabilities as a beginner. Also thanks to Lara's site I have joined Raverly - which has just kicked my addiction up a level as I am also learning knitting ( I have ladies teaching both Knitting and Crochet at my shop - so advice is always around which is fantastic).
So last night as I was watching my new embroidery machine embellish the material that I am going to use for my crochet roll, I was crocheting my first project from Raverly - Float Away Scarf - I think I have made a couple of mistakes, but I am sure this is all part of the learining process - as long as it looks ok and keeps someones neck warm I will be happy with my attempt -
If you are into machine embroidery I found a fantastic site for designs at the most amazing prices - The Embroidery Library - This is where I got the designs for the paisley butterfly in the picture
This morning I decieded to make Ella (yes and me) some Chocolate Chip Biscuits - I must say they are from a packet mix - Ella wanted to help - and this is the first time she has licked the spoon - so I thought I wound capture the moment with a photo - when she was licking the spoon she said "Ohh Mummy I love this!"
Ella is turning three next Saturday and I have a picture of the Invitations that I made on my Cricut Machine for her party - very cute - it will be a BBQ & Cupcake Affair!! - Can't Wait should be fun!!
Anyway there is one cookie left and I hear it calling my name - Jim is at work and Ella is having a nap - I will make the most of my ME time!!
