Catching up

Well I know it's been a while since I was on here but even so to forget my password is a bit much. Here now though so that's all that matters.

I've not made many cards recently, only those which needed sending. I've not been completely idle though as other crafts have taken up my time.
Back in May I decided to buy myself a new sewing machine and i've been having fun looking for and ordering some cute fabrics.
I've made a few of these blankets which I like to call cuddly comforters - i've actually managed to sell a few as well. :-)



I love the clean fresh look of this nursery fabric and bought it in all the 4 colours - pink, blue, lilac and cream. The backing is a nice soft fleece fabric and the ribbons and braids all come from my slowly decreasing stash. Each blanket measures about 10 inches plus the length of the ribbons. There's approximately 2 yards of ribbon on each one but each loop only measures 6 inches so a good way to use up some smaller pieces. All triple stitched for strength.
They are available on my fb page. Swardys-Knitted-Creations

I hope everyone has not forgotten me and I get a few views on this, would be a bit embarrassing if no-one came to look. ;-)
