More vintage goodness ....

 Just found another vintage piece this morning ... 
Love that I keep discovering old friends .. 
That turn up unexpected ...
But always welcome ...
And a little bit of liberty love happening too ...

Liberty hexagons EEP

EPP or English paper piecing is growing in all corners of the world
Women generally don't like 'sitting' doing nothing ...
Women want to create ... And create we shall.. 
I personally am drawn to Liberty tana lawn .. Not only because of the hundreds of combinations but I want something of heirloom significance ... Liberty ticks all the boxes ...

In the kitchen ...

I'm a foodie ... 
That's for sure 
I love anything new and it has to be healthy and there is so much talk about 'bone broth ' and its health benefits ...
First you have to have ' good grass fed beef bones '
Second you have to have time .. 48 hrs is the recommendation 
So here we are at the 24 hr mark ....

Finished granny square blanket ....

Finally finished a really large blanket ... 
Took ages but really happy .. Each square is different ..
I've used all wool and some cotton and wool mixes ..because for me it's all about the colour combo 
I put an ugly .. brown or muddy green ... next to a pretty and this works for me ..
I am using a new hook too ... a tulip ..apart from having a lovely name it's truly amazing
