- I have finally managed to naturally dye some organic cotton I had in my stash - I used Rebecca's dyeing with avocado skins tutorial. It takes a while, but totally worth the effort. I am not sure what I will make out of my new fabric, but whatever it will be I cannot wait to wear it with my new hand-knitted cardigan.
- Pauline released her new pattern - the Rosari skirt - I love how she is always bang on trend. I want a jeans version of this skirt - and in fact I already have the fabric in my stash for it. Maybe I will even wear a skirt, and not just make one for my wardrobe. That would be quite something.
- I discovered Clemence - or Huguette Paillettes on instagram - she posts free tutorials/patterns. It seems that the Germaine Cardigan will become a French blogger must have. It is a free pattern, so I may have a go.
- I may just have to read this book about courage and the next steps. I may not be ready for any of this yet, but hopefully in time I will.
- Liesl is going to do a shop update on October 30, and the natural colour she produced out of walnuts is unbelievable.
- The versions of the Mesa quilt makes me want Quilting from every angle even more. I love Nancy's style. It may get me back into quilting as well. Has anyone got the book?
- Grainline Studio and the Tamarack jacket - I have wanted to make a jeans quilted jacket for a while. It might be it (with a few modifications here and there). Love that it is collarless!
- Erin sewed a top called Natalie- well I just had to check it out - how fun would it be to sew a top with my name on it. It is a bit too similar to the Weekend Gateaway blouse - that I should have finished by now but is not. Still a nice top with a great name!
- I love the Aoraki hat - I have not bought the pattern yet, but for sure I will knit myself one this year - probably in that colour with that pompom - OMG, have you seen the pompom?
