More Hooking

Playing with leftovers - working on Cozy toes.

Needs a little refining but overall very cozy.

Another vest this time in Chocolate brown Alice, requested by a member of my craft group.

In the past week I completed more blocks for the blanket. The tally has passed 40 so just a few more to go and then I can join them up. I really am optimistic that this can happen this week.

Saturday for something different, some members of my craft group took an excursion across town and to check out the Embroiderers Guild exhibition.

A most worthwhile excursion and there were lots of interesting pieces both large and small to admire. No photography was allowed, so I can't share the amazing work which incorporated a good variety of embroidery and other needle arts within the exhibition theme.

This exhibition runs until September 25th so there is plenty of time to go for a look if you are in Melbourne.

Hope your weekend has been an inspiring one.

The weather is certainly right for 'cosy' toes! Hoping you find time to put the squares together this week.
