1 a MONTH CLUB -JULY





My  "1  a Month Club "decorations are finished ready for collection .  This is my snowy Owl.    I bought the Owl pattern from  Whimsylandia on Etsy. She has several owls brooches patterns and they were the right size for my project, yes I would like to make more. The white leaves are glitter felt the photo does not show their sparkle and the wreath is made from the Chocolate plant vines  Do you know it ?



At present I am working a set of weather folk, using  wooden, peg dolls here is the first one- Sunshine. This  one would be the right one for today, its a bright sunny winters day here, the mountain got a good blanket of snow this week  so looks like the photo on my header, it has meant that it has been very cold, but guess that's what we expect in winter. The ski field is now open so there will be people up there enjoying the lovely day which is a change from all the stormy weather we have had.

We have also been given the challenge from guild to dress a peg doll, the completed item must have some embroidery on the outfit. and they will be judged by popular vote at our November Christmas dinner.  As always I have too many ideas so will do a couple of outfits to decide which I like best. Have seen some lovely ones on Pinterest, there are some very clever craft people.

I am not sure if I blame lockdown for upsetting my calendar plans or maybe I should admit to being a little absent minded in my old age, but my blog anniversary slipped by last month, and I have not even thought about it! 
I now have to go away and think about what I can make for the special person I will honour from my blog friends to commemorate my 11th Anniversary. Thank you all who read and follow my ramblings,
I have decided to select the person who has commented the most times during the past year.....  and that is...       Vickie from a Stitcher's Story . 
Vickie has also been following my blog for the past 8 years, joining in about the time I share making the little hearts, Did you ever get one made Vickie or should I make one to include in the parcel? 

Hope everyone is staying safe and if in lockdown still able to get plenty of stitching time.
