Blocking

I found the perfect beret blocking device in my kitchen cupboards. My Koziol Babell kake stand.
Soak the beret in water for a few minutes first. Pick the right sized plate, and tie a piece of yarn through the first row of stiches. Leave to dry into the right shape

Cloning myself

I've made a dress form from duct tape using this tutorial. This is my second try as the first one collapsed after staying in a hot car for too long.

Strar-struck

My Star-struck quilt was done last week. I just haven't had any time for blogging.
If you want to make this quilt you'll find the instructions at Bonnie Hunters Quiltville.

Vintage

I love vintage clothing. My mother made this dress some time around 1968. (I'm sorry for cutting off the boots, but it was the best my 10 year old son could do)
