A doily which my neighbour had trouble with. I have eventually after four pineapples, worked out how to do the point at the end.
Nice book, not mine, but I really must not choose any more things to put on my wish list. Although, saying that, I like the blanket border for another WIP.
A sedge stitch crochet infinity scarf - nice stitch pattern which I learnt doing my sampler blanket. It is to go with ...
Unfinished curtains, just need the ribbons putting on the hems.
£5 charity shop bargain - full length cream curtains, they are for the cabin so no rush for those yet.
Finally, a by-product of the picnic blanket. Every time I ran to the end of each ball I made the bits into granny squares so that the ends did not go back into the yarn basket. All used up and tidy then you see....
9 squares? enough for a cushion cover do you think?
Knuckle down Jo and stop thinking about girl's cabin quilts, crochet covered jam jars with candles, painted wooden trunks, an old directors chair in the shed and other such fripperies. STOP!
Are you finishing WIP's? Jo xxxx
Yes, I'm trying to finish WIPs too, but I keep seeing New ideas on Pintrest!
ReplyDeleteA post full of gorgeous WIPs! Well done with the squares made from scraps, that will make a lovely cushion! But don't talk to me about my own WIP pile...ever growing...Cx
ReplyDeleteLots of lovely WIP's, I'm exactly the same, if I see something I like, I cast on. I started something new last night but still have loads to finish. X
ReplyDeleteMy head is exactly the same, bursting with the next project, all a flurry with ideas, and then WIP's winking at me from the corners of the house. Love the striking left over yarn
ReplyDeleteFive WIPS at my house on my side of the pond, Jo, but I am making some progress! It is fun to keep in touch and compare notes and encourage each other along the way :) You continue to inspire me! xx
ReplyDeleteTee hee - it's a familiar lament! Some very lovely WIPs though. . . onwards & upwards... :-)

So many lovely things to make. I'm retired now and thought I would have loads of time for crafting, but I still find time just flies and I don't have enough time to make everything I would like to make. I blame it on blogland, it's so inspiring! Liz x
ReplyDeleteThere's just so much to make! I know how you feel. I try to only have a maximum of two projects going at any given time, but sometimes they just get away from me. I think I have four in some stage of done-ness at the moment. :)
ReplyDeleteLast years resolution was to get the year befores WIPs done, this year I don't have a clue how many unfinished projects I have! I think I might be happier doing the ones I can see in my basket ;-) Your coat seems to be coming along very nicely & I reckon 9 grannies will be enough for a cushion, you just need a back x
ReplyDeleteI'm scared to count up all my wips!!!
ReplyDeleteYou have some great WIPs there Jo, I confess that I am very similar and think I currently have six WiIPs on the go but possibly more...!
ReplyDeleteMarianne x
You certainly have a lot of wip's going on! Your picnic blanket is looking good and would be ideal for the cabin, and then you could have a coordinating cushion with the granny squares, it will be lovely. xx
ReplyDeleteHA! Dream Jo Dream! It is the good stuff in life! Your projects in process are absolutely GORGEOUS! Just think you can work on all of these as you kick back in that chair at the cabin! Just one question...do your sleep?!?! You are brilliant! Nic xoxo
