granny squares

over the past few days i've been re-teaching myself how to crochet. i used to make granny squares when i was a kid. my mum used to make massive big blankets. but it never kept my attention long enough for me to do that.

recently while looking for something, i found a crochet hook. so i started playing.



this is what i've got so far. its a bit wonky and i'm not really sure why. but i like it. its got character.

holidays almost over!

my holidays are almost over :(

i haven't done any sewing that i meant to do at all. my machine is really not happy with me. i've got a few suggestions on how to fix it so that will be my mission today (as well as buying some stuff from spotlight and attempting to clean my room a bit!)

anyways over the holidays i bought myself some new watercolour paints. so i've been mucking around with those a little bit.





mostly i've just been colouring silly little critters like these, just old scribbles in my journals. and a few new ones like the bunny you can see in the top picture.

its my birthday on the weekend and i was hoping to make myself something to wear out. so i better get cracking on fixing my machine.
