Crochet

I crocheted the Mandala from Mollie Makes…

17/06/2015

Every now and then a feature in a magazine will capture my imagination. I find I simply have to make/sew/crochet it immediately !
Do you ever do that or is it just me?

Have you seen the Mandala crochet pattern in issue 54 of  Mollie Makes?
There are three sizes to choose from. I fancied crocheting a large mat/doily for the centre of our garden table.  I hooked up the large size.
It is a superb a superbly written pattern by Ayda Algin from Istanbul
You can see the feature written in Turkish on her blog Cafenohut 

I spent a happy afternoon and evening hooking it up. I used my scraps of Drops Muskat that were left over from another project.
I recommend you give it a go, even if you are a beginner!

I'd so appreciate you sharing this post!

I’m finally getting back to writing and more importantly enjoying writing blog posts! 
This week I’ve written about how you can save money by buying tablecloths instead of fabric when sewing linen. 
In case you don’t sew I’ve also included a few linen dresses and comfy wide trousers (my next make )for you to peruse too. 
Let me know what you think, it’s a short read and you can find the link in my stories and in my bio under ‘latest blog post’

First dress #isabellatop by @hubbadingpatterns 
Second @mccallpatterncompany #m7969
Third my favourite #validress by @patternfantastique

Lurking in old alleys & having a good hair day. 
Wearing my handmade version of an Arket kaftan dress. Challenged myself to see if I could do it. I did, win win. My version cost £30 theirs was £69. My friend Amanda  @simply.start.living has the real deal and the linen is much nicer. But overall it’s a fair copy of the original (imo) what say you? 
.
Fabric a linen mix from @sew__jessalli used the #arraytop pattern @papercutpatterns I also made a belt for it.

This little boy is nearly 11 years old. The time has flown. He is healthy for his age but is beginning to suffer with arthritis. 
He finds all the best soft squishy cushions to lay on and loves this Moroccon pouffe!
We are reasearching care of older dogs and wondering if anyone has advice on making life easier for arthritic older dogs. Any suggestions very much appreciated. The vet suggested anti inflammatory meds.
