At the nest

​well I finally finished the wool top for Georgia 


I did the bind off using the icord method 

It rolls and it’s stretchy so perfect for this top. 


I’ve got it back stretching it out. I’ve got these buttons out but I’m not sure 

I’ll think about it a bit and make up my mind. 

Now I needed a new yarn project.  I’ve still got the EPP. and I’m adding to it 

Constantly. But I do like having a yarn project going as well. 


Back when Carron cakes were all the go. I made three of these blankets

One for each granddaughter. But as we know. Life gave us a surprise and 

I needed another one of these. 

I looked everywhere for the graph I used to make the squares. Do you think I 

Could find it? No. So I just grabbed one and just recreated the square. 

I also wrote down what I did, and how many stitches I made on each row. 

I’ve almost finished the first square 

 But I was needed outside 

I had to help hubby place the new surprise in the perfect spot 


He worked the crane and I gave instructions. 

It took a little bit of time but now 


It’s on the ground and ready for me to kit out. 

It’s my new art studio. Sounds more fancy than art room lol 

As you can see we moved the wicking beds to make room for it 

We can now put them back along the side of the very weed filled 

Rose garden. 

I’m very excited and hopeful I’ll be able to start painting at home again 

We will organise getting power to it. So I can have lights, heating and a fan for summer. 

No rush now. It’s here and it will be filled with my art paraphernalia in the next few days 

Right now it’s pouring rain. I’m going to wait for a nicer day. 

And finally yesterday he girls had a very calm relaxing day 


It has been a very busy week for the girls.  Georgia has been waking up 

At night due to more teeth and even though Annie doesn’t actually 

Wake up, she does stir.  

She wanted to lay on grandmas lap. And I was happy to have her there. 

Meanwhile I was trying to get Georgia to sleep somewhere other than

My arms. I came up with this 


The little pull out couch on the sofa and I was sitting right next to it. 

She did open her eyes a few times. But as she saw I was there went back to sleep 

Doesn’t she look relaxed.  Not a care in the world 

The big news of the day was she finally has started to crawl.

Her mummy was here picking her up when we finally got her to 

Move.  And I videotaped it. I’m glad she waited for her mother to be here 

Being a working mum she misses out on lots of firsts  

So your now up to date  

It’s been a very eventful few days. 

I’m exhausted, but very happy   

Even with all this rain
