I needed something simple and small to keep my hands occupied as working on the big mosaic blanket is just too hot and heavy now
I’ve wanted to make one of those combination blankets using fabric and crochet
I made the squares up a couple of weeks ago and they have been sitting and waiting for the crochet part.
Today I blanket stitch all around each square
I found a video tutorial called height tea crochet and decided to follow the pattern
It’s pretty simple and looks pretty.
One square down, nineteen more to go
Should keep my hands too busy to eat.
Well that’s the plan anyway
Oh the distraction tactics are well known in my house. Sometimes they work- sometimes not. I often wonder why not??
ReplyDeleteIn my case it’s because I’m very determined to eat and nothing stands in my way lol
DeleteGoodness! It's going to be SO pretty when finished...
ReplyDeleteYou know those head feeders farmers put on their horses? I have one...and it works...I can do all sorts of things and Still not go hungry...Hahaaa...NO! Not really but it Could work...lol
Enjoy your day!

Can't wait to see the finished product. Interesting combination of crafts.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like the combo quilt Maryanne made, see her on Magpie's Mumblings. Interesting idea.
ReplyDeleteNow that is something different . Can't wait to see the result!!
ReplyDeleteYou should pop by Magpie's Mumblings https://magpiesmumblings.blogspot.com/ she has been doing something similar. Can't wait to see your cross stitch. I find it relaxing doing it.
