I am addicted to green shopping bags. Have a look here in the bottom of my kitchen cupboard.
I am pretty good at using them too. I rarely forget to take them when I go grocery shopping. My problem is that when I go to a shopping centre (not for groceries) I end [...]

The last couple of weeks I have been going through my project box that has all my WIP’s and UFO’s. I am at the point where I have done all of the good things and I am left with the stuff that I am not fussed on. A couple of the projects [...]

IJust a quick post to tell you about these two cool sites I have just found.
The book depository is a UK online book store that gives amazon a good run for it’s money. The best bit is that it has free international shipping. I say again FREE.
fabricmatcher is an awsome site with the [...]

It took us an hour long phone call but we eventually picked our fabrics for our joint quilt. We are going to use the pattern that I posted yesterday and try and work on a block a month. The plan is to work with 3 main fabrics each, make all of the blocks [...]

During my unintended break I didn’t totally neglect the rest of the craft world. I checked my favourite blogs every day and continued listening to all of my pod-casts. I still surfed the net and found and bought some great patterns and books.
A very good crafty friend of mine deserved some unexpected presents so [...]

As I mentioned yesterday I joined the mason dixon swap. It was probably a silly idea considering that when I joined I hadn’t yet received the book, but I am keen so that must count for something.
I emailed my partner (whom I have to knit for) this morning to let her know that I am on [...]

Yesterday the mailman delivered me some goodies that I recently bought on ebay. I have been on the lookout for the ABC knits book, as I was inspired by Jemima by Knitting Box. An ebay seller (wool cottage maintained by woolly4413) had an old library book version and I got it for [...]

Being an Australian knitter it has taken me a little while to get used to some new terms. Until listening to some international knitting podcasts I was blissfully unaware. I knit with “wool” regarless of the blend, which (I have learnt) is commonly known as yarn. And yarn is not always in “balls” but sometimes [...]

I have stumbled accross this site called addall.com . It is a website that does a book search and price camparison. The best thing is that you get to choose which country the book is to be delivered to and what currency you want the results displayed in. You can find books by author, title, [...]

I bought the book Denyse Schmidt QUILTS last week and I absolutely love it. There are only 10 quilt patterns in the book but they are fantastic. The quilts are very modern looking with simple colours and clean lines. There are also 20 other projects; like an apron, a toy cat and an eye pillow [...]
