8th October 2016

It was the official opening of Coopers Crafty Corner today where I have two shelves displaying my makes. It went well and was very busy.

It's starting to look and feel a bit more like Autumn so I thought I would make some things with an Autumn feel. 

Finally finished my granny square mohair blanket which has turned out rather well. Beautiful colours and so light and warm.

Last week I made a couple of Autumn wreaths using materials in shades of green, rust and gold. I put a hedgehog motif on one and an owl on the other. I will be making some more of these as one has gone already!

I have also crocheted some Autumn leaves. Put a couple on the wreaths but not decided what to do with the others yet.

Made a couple of purses and some tissue cases from a pretty print with woodland creatures. Will have to make some more of these too as they are proving popular.

Manged to crochet a hedgehog pincushion, my fist attempt at amigurumi, but forgot to photograph him before he went in the shop. Will definitely be making some more of those and will post a picture. Also have a pattern for some knitted hedgehogs and got some great wool from the craft show last week so need to get started.

Finally working on some little felt owls that can be hung from a keyring or just for decoration. Have several all cut out and ready to sew.

Think that should keep me going for next week!
