Goldilocks and the Three Bears

Image
My grandson has this week discovered the Joys of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. A little cabin in the woods that I made for my granddaughters about fifteen years ago. I really enjoyed designing and constructing The Three Bears Log Cabin.  The Three Little Quilts were a bit of a challenge. I enjoyed choosing the fabrics for the curtains, night sky and wallpaper. I made the mattress on Daddy Bear's Bed Too Hard Manna Bear's Too Soft And Baby Bear's Just Right. It really was a lot of fun working out how to make The Three Bears, Goldielocks, the fire, carpet, picture, table and chairs and of course three bowls of porridge. I'm very proud of my efforts in this project. Why not Check Out My Other  Social Media Links

And So the Crochet Begins

2017 The Year of the Hook 2017 The Year of the  Hook. And no, I haven't given up Patchwork and Quilting. In fact there is plenty coming up on that front this year. BUT I have decided that now is the time to share my Joy of Crochet. And so in January I opened the doors on my Once a Month Crochet Group, open to all levels from beginner up. We kicked off last month with a Basic Granny Square. And this month having made five Granny Squares we have progressed to a bag/box.

The last five years have flown by. We had so much fun in Crochet Class. We learnt new Stitches and Patterns. Stretched ourselves. Inspired and helped each other.  So much new Crochet has been worked. I also put a few How to Crochet Videos up on my YouTube Channel. But that was the last four years. Time Now For A Change Time
