Glad to hear you are keeping busy Nemesis. Got my mum on the squares project. These are my latest creations, all crochet.

Thanks Hollins and to your Mum, Yes Angela has crocheted some together and other volunteers are sewing them up. Just run the application form for the Fayre off for her and the hire costs for a table or a cabin range from £200.00 to £600.00, so we shall have to make and sell alot of stuff to cover that.---That is IF we get a slot, last year we were told that they had all been sold.

Hope you managed to sell the blankets Nemesis.

Here are the last three things that I have made........a bit of a contrast between them!

Oh no, you have got me worried now. What is Atlantis? Sounds scary. It is supposed to be a minion from the film Despicable Me, a present for my niece for Christmas.

Atlantis is a BBC1 production which melds the Classics together in an unlikely and fantastic re-telling of Jason and the Argonauts.  Saturday night, usually about 2000. Stars Mark Addy (excellent), with the fascinating Jemima Rooper as Medusa and Sarah Parrish as Persiphae. It's a lot of fun, and has the usual mix of battles and magic. Last week featured the Cyclops.

We ended up with well over 30 blankets to sell and have sold a good amount at the Christmas Fayre. What are left will be on sale in the shop from today.
My daughter and I have made over 100 items which she offered at her local craft fayre last Saturday. Most sold, so she is happy with the result.

Super work Hollins, here are a couple of my latest efforts. I think I have done a dozen pairs of these, plus around 20 baby hats, some with mittens, some with matching booties. Have lost count now, as Hope House sells them pretty rapidly.!
