Well the ladies have come along in leaps and bounds in the 6 weeks since we began this adventure.
They all know the basic stitches and can read the pattern notations and have tackled various items from the Attic24 website.
Here's the latest Birdie Decoration
Some Flowers and Daffodils too.
One lady is going to try the Cosy Neck Warmer, so watch this space...
We learnt Popcorn Stitch last week and now have 2 more popcorn flowers to show off.
Plus the first square of many for a gorgeous baby blanket, a lifelong ambition of one lady, nearly realised, how wonderful is that.
This week we tackled Crocodile Stitch, now that was fun.... Ladders and rungs and scales in all orientations, lots of trial and error but everyone got there in the end.
The ladies can now spot where they have gone wrong and how they have gone wrong.
A world away from where they began as complete beginners 6 weeks ago.
Well done everyone.
About Me

- Hi, Welcome to my Blog. I'm an eclectic kind of crafter delving into many pots. I am just about managing to keep up my Scrapbooking Diary (usually about 6 months behind), plus any cards as required. I have a new found love of Watercolour and Bible Journaling plus recently Faith/Art Journaling too. I've challenged myself to make an art journal page a day for this my 60th year. Previously I've also dabbled in ATCs, Tags, Altered Books, Mixed Media, Décopatch, Knitting, Crochet, and Embroidery amongst other things. I live in Surrey, UK with my husband, our son has left home now. For exercise I usually play Badminton and go Ballroom and Latin Dancing. I also like walking/Geocaching and sometimes do a bit of Bouncing on my Rebounder (mini trampoline). I have been learning to play the harp for the past 10yrs. I am now officially retired. I am a born again Christian, currently worshiping at my local Vineyard Church.

WOW! Loads of lovely crochet.
Hope you are having a nice week. Sue
How fantastic that they were all so successful. I've tried every technique going but it just doesn't happen. Don't think my brain is wired right for it or my left handedness. I've even had left handed tutors trying to teach me :-(
Thank you for linking me in
