Hi I'm back

Hello all

I am sorry that I have been absent for a few weeks but although I only work part time I obviously do not organise my time very well and my hook calls me more than the lap top.
We have been up to all sorts including my birthday which was spent away in the holiday home on wheels for four days with my sister joining us for the week end again.
We went to a site near Chesterfield. On the Friday we went to Bakewell and had a lovely day there just absorbing the scenery and prettiness of the town. On Saturday we went into Chesterfield and mooched around the shops with the intention of getting some much needed christmas shopping but it didnt work out like that. We had some lovely meals out and about and watched the fireworks going off all around whilst sitting in our home on wheels on bonfire night.
I have a few pics of our previous on wheels time:-

This is the site at malvern the picture does not do it justice the view was fab.

This is shot of village pond just down the road

Last Day of Hols

Hi
Yet again its been a while but we are still away on holiday. Luckily for me I have all the equipment I need to do my blog.
I have been busy whilst away as I find when we have done our sight seeing and retire back to our lovley holiday home on wheels I have lots of free relaxation time to get out my yarn and hooks.

This is work in progress on a teddy I made from a lovely book called Adorable Crochet for Babies and Toddlers by Lesley Stanfield

And here is the finished teddy complete with his own waistcoat I love him and decided on a run of toys !!!!

I also made some cute cotton baby shoes had to end up making three to get two the right size !!!! I gave them to the intended baby before I got a picture but I still have the third so may take a pic of that and show you !!

This is the frog from the book Amigurumi by Lan-Anh Bui & Josephine Wan, bit of fun hey ?
and talking of fun..........

This is an Alien from the October edition of Inside Crochet the baby aliens tuck into the body fab isnt it ??

We went away for two weeks starting off in Tewkesbury camping right next door to the Abbey.......

How beautiful is this building we went in side a couple of times the second time being when my sister had joined us for the week end and they had an orchestra inside which were practising for a concert that evening it was lovely.

And to follow some more lovley snaps of Tewkesbury

There were some lovely spots to seek out.

Here is a teddy which I used a larger hook than required and thicker wool and used the design from Cute & Easy Crochet by Nicki Trench another great little book.

Some of my yarnie toys were finshed and taken home from my previous hols and photographed at home others were completed here in the van some are still to be photographed and up loaded but they will appear in next blog.

Another teddy work in progress this time proper size and yarn completed little bear to be shown next time.

Whilst we were at Tewkesbury the Mop Fair came to town we had a wonder round. I just love sounds, the smells and the lights.

Thats all for now, not easy in the holiday home on wheels to hold type etc the lap top in tiny spaces.

Its home tomorrow from our travels through Tewkesbury, Moreton-in-Marsh, Bourton-on-the-Water, Malvern and Bourneville.
Bye for now
Happy Hooking and Hoeing

Vanny Catch Up part Two

Hello at last long time no blog.
Toooooooooooo busy where does all the time go ?

Snap shots of a tiny part of mummy s garden she got her love of flowers from her mum my nan definately runs in the family.

Any way more snaps from vanny excursion in Southwold - I just love this town.....

So much to see, so many different areas with the town, sea shore, pier, prom and harbour with the lovely fish and chip shop the famous mrs T's

Mrs T's is run from a shed along the harbour I havent a picture but the ones I have relay the type of building it is. If ever you visit Southwold find the harbour and take a walk.
