My new tea cosy.  I'm pretty pleased with the way it looks and it is very thick so should keep my tea warm.  A little bit of modular knitting and a super quick pompom for the top.  Stitching the linings to the outside pieces was a bit tricky.

2015 and I'm Back

I decided to resurrect this blog after six long years.  This used to be My Mersey Paradise but I moved house almost two years ago and so its been renamed. 

Lots has happened in six years.

• I've had two new different jobs, had a few months off work, had a small shop selling craft supplies and handmade gifts and I'm starting 2015 looking for a new job.
• My son got engaged, then married, and then moved to the states.
• I separated from my DH and both of us moved away separately from our Mersey paradise

Over the last two years since I moved to the Dales I have been very creative.  Lots of gardening, knitting, sewing, painting and many other crafts.  Most of what I have created has been temporary, gifted or sold.

I often feel like I haven't really achieved anything much so thought I would use this blog to document all my 2015 'creations'
