Pinning and Posting


A bit of all sorts ............
 
I don't know where the week has gone already. I seem to have been really busy sorting stuff out and not a lot to show for my efforts ...... bet you know the feeling!
 
Anyway, I have been getting the hang of Facebook and posting lots of lovely finds on my time line page.
 
I have been PINNING on Pinterest
If you haven't already tried it, they have opened up the site to anyone who wants to join now, as opposed to by invitation only.
Check my Pinterest boards out for links to tutorials on all crafty things, including crochet and knitting.
 
I've managed to get some crochet time in and finish the cushion covers I was working on ............
 
The first one, I have named the
Liquorish Allsort cushion
as I definitely agree with Two Hippo's comment on the colours in my previous post and every time I look at it now, it makes me think of them!  
 
 The edging


 the front

The reverse
 
 
 
The next crochet cushion I made for my dear mum for a pressie to make her smile, she loves my work and is my biggest fan!
 
 
 
 I like the diagonal holes



 I thought I would try ties instead of buttons as a closure and I think they have worked!


 
The front and back are the same, I must have been having a pink and purple moment!
 
I am also in the process of trying to get the hang of a new camera and have been experimenting with the functions. 
 
So actually, I think I have had a rather productive week!! :)

I'm loving ......


this week ..........

I am please to say that I have found my bloggin' mojo again. 

And I am finding many new blogging things I thought I would share with you ......

Have you come across


 yet?

It's a fun site that allows one to create pin boards where you can upload images from your own blog, other peoples blogs, websites etc that you find to be of interest and create your own catalogue of images.   It is full of beautiful photos, full of inspiration and a great way to organise all your lovely found items of visual interest.

You can check mine out at        


Mine is a work in progress at the moment so a few gaps but enjoying the process.
