Knotty Ladies

I've joined a local stitching social group, Knotty Ladies.  Our first get together is tonight, a crafty group run by the Bendigo Sustainability Craft Group & my darling sister, Tamara Marwood.

The group is going to be working towards making a unique textile art work or functional item from sustainable or reclaimed materials to exhibit and sell as a fundraiser for women based charity.

My project: as I love to embroider I chose this pattern from 'So September'.  I have been looking at it for awhile, thinking this would be just beautiful to embroider, so I happily bought the pattern and can't wait to work on it!





While I was shopping looking on Etsy I also came across this embroidery pattern & just had to have it:


It's from 'a little sweetness' Etsy shop & is so adorable - I know just the person I will make this for!

Can't wait for tonight, although have come down with a cold last night - but my homeopath tablets do work a treat!
