Panders Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) Any Wordle nuts on here? I've been playing since the beginning January after Suzy Dent mentioned it. Cute game.

Froglet Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 I wordle and love it - so much my kind of game plus I like the fact that you can only play once a day so I can’t get sucked into it. In crafty terms I just finished a granny square scarf in the loveliest yarn all greens and berry pinks and purples. The I started a new pair of socks, trying out a new yarn which is SO soft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cait Posted February 5, 2022 Author Share Posted February 5, 2022 Here’s the scarf coming along, once it’s knitted, I’ll weave in self changing rainbow yarn into the rainbow bit to make a fringe. It always looks very effective 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panders Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Have finished my first ever piece of patchwork. It was interesting, it was educational, in that it is not that simple and I will need to keep on practicing. One of my friends said, "I don't see the point in chopping up little pieces of fabric only to sew them back together again"! At one point that was how I felt I must say. It's the accuracy needed in cutting that I find tricky and then of course the seam allowances etc when sewing together. Everything is in silly 8ths of inches etc, I suppose that reflects the American love of it. I look at it and am highly critical, as I am with anything I do. But you only learn from doing, so I shall make my notes and have another go! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panders Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Oh Loubyloo - I'm not sure what to practice first, just making triangles to size maybe, but then it's the accuracy of stitching it for quilting - I think I'd rather not quilt frankly. But the binding tape - which I thought would be easy was tricky because the guide I was following said two pieces of batting, so it was quite thick and the binding tape was just about wide enough but not generous, at that point I had a bit of a downer. I'm glad it's done - I would never have left it half done or whatever. The perfectionist in me (that 10 percent) would like to be a bit more masterful. I do have plenty of fabrics, so I'll just keep practicing I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
