It’s been a busy couple of weeks in my craft room (and on the sofa with a cup of tea and some stitching!). In today’s vlog, I’m sharing everything I’ve been working on lately:

Appliqué & Hand Stitching – I made a lovely door hanger from Buttermilk Basin, part of the monthly subscription from Liberty Bell here in the UK.
Cross Stitch – I’ve been plugging away at “Sunflower Farm,” plus my WIPGO project.
Knitting – My Nirmilintu shawl by Heidi Alander (a free Ravelry pattern) is nearly finished!
Crochet – Two cardigans on the hook, one for my daughter and one for my granddaughter.
Dressmaking – I cut out and stitched up the Cristina skater-style dress, and I absolutely love the fit and how the skirt flares.
Quilting – My Beatrix Potter quilt is growing steadily thanks to my new acrylic hexagon templates, perfect for some hand stitching while watching TV in the evenings.
It’s been such a joy to have a mix of projects on the go, and I can’t wait to share my progress with you all.

If you enjoy crafty catch-ups, don’t forget to like, subscribe, and leave me a comment letting me know what you’ve been working on lately. I love hearing about your projects!
