Sunday at last........




Hello everyone!
Long time no see.....
My computer blooped out on me!
It caught a nasty virus
which deleted all my files and saved things.
I've lost around 80 GB of data
stored in my computer!

When I connected my phone to the computer
the phone was washed out too!!!
Now that my computer is alive again
and my phone has also been restored it's lost status,
I'm ready for posting
the stuff I've been up to lately!


1st and foremost,
I've finished the edging of the
dining table set that I was doing.

Here are some pictures of it....





I've not done any motif on the set as mom said that
as it is they are going to be covered with the dishes
and is giving a very clean look now.
Also because I couldn't decide on a suitable motif!!!



Then,
Finished the tatted edging I was making
and have mounted it on a photo-frame.

The frame had been gifted to me
on my birthday
two years back by my
HOD Dr.R.Usha.
It had been lying packed up since then!

At last I've put it up on the wall!




In the meantime,
I also learned to make crochet flowers.
So, when I made the flowers
had to make something to put them on.....

Found lots of scrap wool lying around
and so made this bag!




So,
These are some of the things I finished making ,

Now for some new starts......
Started a table cloth,

Here's a sampler.....

.

Hoping to be in touch sooner this time.

Bye for now.

And please do keep your feed backs coming!

Crocheting......



My mom was asking me for a long time to
start a bigger project than the
little tatted pieces I'd been doing.

We'll be shifting into a new house by the end of next year
and so we decided to make
some stuff for the new home.

I'm so excited about it that I'm brimming over with ideas !
Table covers, cushions, bed spreads , valances,
embroideries for the walls,
doilies, dressing table sets,
towels, kitchen stuff.......
If I do "somehow" get to make all of it ,
my house is going to look like
a vintage Victorian era house
(read =old fashioned?)
or like a museum of some sort!
Well,

The first project I've started is a
Dining table set of six table-mats,
one centre runner,
six napkins
and some doilies for the centre.

I've made the crochet edging onto four mats

till now and the fifth one is in progress.


I'm really confused as to how to adorn the corners....
an embroidered motif,
or a tatted or crocheted motif.....


Just cant decide!

This is the edging I've decided for the centre piece......



Hope it turns out well!

I'll try to update whenever possible......


Here's another try at the crochet doily

This time it's a pineapple pattern,
It looks like tiger stripes in the garden!!!!
(LOL)
