Show your (craft)work

Incorporating hobbies, computer games, Verm's Interesting Links and anything else you can think of excluding football and other spectator sports because these belong in the Sport section, but allowing sports you play yourself with your own body as that counts as a pastime.

I looked at my 19 different unfinished pandemic projects and decided to be realistic. :lol:

I love that, Baa. It's so cute. It reminds me of the balsa wood caravan my dad made for me when I was little. It had furniture and fully fitted real carpets.

I have made a selection of notebooks for my sister.

Lovely, Bean. I was admiring my notebook again the other day.

I have finished the post box topper. It’s 230 stitches in the largest round! :lol: Mr Sax says I’ve basically made a massive Rasta hat. I wanted more flowers but I’ve run out of the right yarn. Might see if I can put it out tonight!

You can’t really see the yellow round which really, really completes the Rasta look!

The post box topper is so cute, and I love your notebooks Bean!

I made a cardigan out of rib knit fabric, seen here with yesterday’s bicycle top and today’s rust and black print. Elvis also got a plain black top she’d requested.

That’s so brilliant, Cerise!

I’m in awe of your productivity, Wendy.

Tomorrow I intend (Covid vaccine side effects permitting) to start cutting fabric for Tom’s Minecraft quilt. It should be easier than N’s Harry Potter quilt because of the blocky nature of each design, but then that does mean a lot of points to match.
It’s like a normal midlife crisis only with more chandeliers and foreign languages.
