An ongoing project

I started making little granny squares 2 years ago, making sure I kept my hand in as a newly acquired skill ( of sort). It's surprising how many you need to make anything to a decent size. So 9 balls of wool all gone and lost count of how many black balls for the joining used but decided this time to keep to 2 blankets. A learning curve!

Inside

Nan's quotes

Braybrooke nan kept scrapbooks with all sorts of clippings from newspapers,magazines and the local village pamphlets. How lucky I am to have gone through them managed to scan and print to create this book. It's originally from a Ukscrappers cybercrop class. Although the project is not quite finished still needs finishing touches.

Secret Garden

Finally got there lost count how long it's taken me but here it is.  Thanks to Leandra at Paperartsy in helping me resurrect the grunge paste, used on the background and also over the tissue tree trunk hiding under all foliage and flowers. Even tried for the first time mixing paint with water and spraying over the large rose. Shame my photo is a bit wonky. Frame and door purchased at the last two shows from the button it stand. The water feature kindly sourced from jeyes chemist Dolls House at Earls Barton.
