MN Blanket Making Thread continued.......

[RatherBeOnThePiste]

There is irony in me starting this second thread for you lovely Blanket Makers, as I'm the least crafty person, but I'm doing it to help Pidj

Sorry, Whydo, I've just read back and realised there's a whole great chunk of thread that I somehow missed! Next week's my "long" week at work but the week after I think Knitting and I are meeting (are we?) in Winchester again - come and make Ted's and explore the most amazing crafty department store ever

My Ted still only has a head, I'm having a jolly panic over end-sewing and crocheting-together before tomorrow. In my defence, I had to wait for 3 squares from the Isle of Man which only arrived Tuesday thats my excuse and im sticking to it awright

Will wear Head giving Girl badge on Saturday. DP is very much looking forward to being the only boy

Blondes is on her way as we speak....
Looking forward to tomorrow and Pidj - I can always get a Head Boy badge if you think your DP earns it

Morning

Thanks Knotty and Piste - Ted No 2 is currently in production while I wrestle Winston from DS1 who has fallen in love with him!

Purple, I can do the Wednesday of that week, the 13th, if that's any good? I can hand over Teds for their jackets/hats etc . Hope to meet some more of you then too if anyone can make it. Enjoy your meet up tomorrow .

It's a date!

Pidj has suggested wearing flowers in our hair for id purposes at the first blanket exchange tomorrow.

Have duly checked the garden.

Looks like I'll be sporting a fetching <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=4.bp.blogspot.com/_lRj7VTXg61M/TFpkjRMuorI/AAAAAAAACOU/OFVggtUvYxo/s400/hydrangea2.jpg&imgrefurl=purplelofts.blogspot.com/2010/08/hydrangea.html&usg=__ikkPu1uCq9jMnoKfKTm9C7FgB54=&h=300&w=300&sz=29&hl=en&start=21&zoom=1&tbnid=4VyGvqy-SmeAOM:&tbnh=115&tbnw=116&ei=LswNTrCyD4al8QPV2pGbDg&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dhydrangea%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DX%26biw%3D1280%26bih%3D559%26tbm%3Disch&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=1009&vpy=109&dur=750&hovh=225&hovw=225&tx=186&ty=136&page=2&ndsp=21&ved=1t:429,r:6,s:21&biw=1280&bih=559" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">hydrangea

Subtle and understated as usual.

Hmm not sure anythings flowering on my patio. Might be able to rustle up a strawberry leaf? Or I could fake it...

May be easier to spot you under the weight of blankets.

looking forward to seeing the hefty hydrangea

Pistey, look out for the Cindy Crawford look alikey.

I'll be the v rough Helena Bonham Carter vaguely alikey one sat behind her with a dirty great shrub on my head.

Trying to look inconspicuous.

I'm good at looking woolly

You need some wine, woman.

Sheeps can't have that.

absolute titter at the shrubbery and the Helena Bonham Carter look a likey...

You'll see me straight off because I'm going to do the occasion proud and wear my new hat

Go nicely with my mojito [grin[

Oh arse

Chuffin Brian.

Piste, you'll need clothes too.

I might rustle up a crochet hair ornament or two as Pistie nicked my hat

shouts over shoulder, "I thought we were doing tassles Knottyyyyyyyyy..."

Right, this isn't getting the dinner sorted.

However, my outfit is!

Just checked the weather: 10% chance of precipitation. Keep me shrubbery looking fresh.

If raining, I'll be the one with the Ben 10 brolly.

Yes indeed: tassles, a hydrangea and a Ben 10 brolly.

[trendsetter]

Okayyyyyy.
A bit of fruit and some tassels from Pidj. Let's hope its not too chilly.......

As my mother says....

People don't always look in admiration.
