Good Friday and it's Friday Night Sew In which Wendy is extending to Easter Weekend Sew In. Click here to see who joined in and what they are getting up to. I thought I would start by posting my Friday work and will catch up later with anything else I work on over the weekend.
During the afternoon I worked in my #31daysartjournal sketchbook, now well into 40+ days but I finally have a couple of pages I am calling finished.
I love Ranunculus flowers and this one flowered on my kitchen window sill for most of March and into April so deserved a two page spread.
Then during the evening I added two pink RSC Dresdens to my quilt, they had been finished for a few days so just needed pressing and appliqueing.
Not many more of these little ones to do then I must do four rainbow Dresdens for the corners.
On Thursday I finished these Winwick Mum Easy Lace socks from her book More Super Socks. The lace bit really is easy and I love her heel. Next to try I think is the pattern for Easy Cable Socks - its some time since I did a cable. Meanwhile I can crack on with the hat that I bought the yarn for last week.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend and Happy Easter!
Wonderful art journal pages, Lin! I love those flowers too. So many delicate, paper looking petals on each flower. I love your socks. They’re so pretty!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work on your pages ..
ReplyDeletePretty pink flowers and your socks look very cosy.
Have a Happy Easter...
Goodness Lin, how busy you have been. What gorgeous socks, pretty colour and pattern and you have had time also to work on the dresdens and sketchbook which is looking very professional. Happy Easter.
ReplyDeleteYour sketchbook is just lovely--what nice work you do--I've just finished the basis for my 2nd fabric book page...now, where to start and what to embroider??? This will take some thought...
ReplyDeleteI hope your Easter is a happy and safe one...hugs, julierose
Those socks do look lovely!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter!
Pretty socks! There's nothing like hand-made socks. None of that seam across your toes bit!
ReplyDeleteOh, those socks are so pretty, Lin. Such a pretty colour yarn and pattern. Cable socks will be fun. Ranunculus are such happy flowers. I suppose they are popping up everywhere there, now. Your sketches of your one are fabulous! A Happy Easter to you, too.
ReplyDeleteYour sketchbook looks amazing Lin! The Dresdens look lovely too.
ReplyDeleteGreat finish on the socks too! I need to start knitting soon, I bought loads of sock wool, after being inspired by Winwick Mum, and even knitted the tension square ..... now to get started!

Yey, you finished those lovely socks. Love your journal sketchbook. Cute Dresdens.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful journal work and the socks are just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThe sketchbook work looks great - interesting concept that it's taken a while to complete some pages - it makes it into a very creative process. The socks turned out lovely. Have fun with the cables!
ReplyDeleteOh your page is so lovely. Such a creativity. Love the color blue you chose for the socks. Must be fun to wear socks that you have made.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing the finished Dresden top.
ReplyDeleteAlways enjoy seeing your artwork.
I am enjoying your sketchbooks.
ReplyDeleteI love the journal! The socks look so comfy.
