Credit crunch? Pah! We crafty crafters are better than that!
Who needs expensive florists when little posies spring forth in our gardens at this time of year?
And it needs a press, but my 6ft show banner began life as vintage doilies, lace tray cloths and bra straps!
And what will Cinders wear to Ravelry Day?
Well, whilst digging about in a charity shop recently, I came across a load of lovely handmade silk ties. They triggered a misty memory of a wartime dress pattern I'd seen in a 'make do' article.
So being a lady of hour-glass proportions and liking bias-cut hip skimmers that slim. I've embarked upon a dress.
I'll let you know how it goes....
Have a colour-filled day of joy.
