A bush weaving





We're just back from my brother's 'weaving' (his preferred term for wedding) - here's the very happy couple, along with their daughter. The bride, my lovely sister-in-law, looked like a Grecian goddess :D


Here's the collage I made for them - it's Christmas Bells, in their 'wedding colours' and an Australian native. I framed it with a deep red matt and black frame - looked quite stunning if I do say so myself!

My missing camera memory card was found in dotter's room - I'm sure that Lulu put it there... what she was doing mucking about with my camera we'll never know!

A Harlot Happening

A HARLOT HAPPENING.

Thursday 22 March, 6pm +, at Starbucks at MANUKA.

If you read the Yarn Harlot, you will be aware from a recent post that she's planning a VERY BIG book launch on Thursday 22 March in New York. So we're joining in the fun here!

There will be fun games, sock knitting, nice drinks, and readings from Yarn Harlot books - plus much much more! Planning has even happened (gosh)!

Champagne socks

Last weekend I visited my friends, and their baby was finally big enough to wear the singlet I made for him! Sooo cute (especially when he's asleep ;)

We then had a Belconnen Stitch'n Bitch, to celebrate the visit of Ginger_Nut and her sister-in-law from Sydney. The Lighthouse was a reasonable location, although the drunken idiot at the next table was a complete dickhead not a bonus. Lulu came along... first of all she threw all good manners to the wind by drinking Bells' champagne through a STRAW (oh, the shame!).
And then she had a go at knitting Bells' latest pink socks, when they had been left unattended... I hope you didn't have to unravel a lot, Bells!

Frightfully busy being a single mum this week, working, finishing a wedding present (I'll share photos after the event), preparing to travel to Merimbula on Saturday and going to my brother's wedding on Sunday, and being sick with a virus. Please excuse my non-appearance on your Blogs... should have time next week :)
