New knitting basket
Just a quick one my knitting basket broke (because I stood on it) and so while it was disassembled I decided to change the fabric on it from the grey flowery one that it had on before to this material and the sides which are made out of jeans. I used the original as a pattern and sewed it up on my bernina although I had to do the bottom by hand x
Just a not i got the fabric (polyester i think) from a church sale x

Crafty update
So I have been home for a couple of days now and look what I have achieved; the embroidery I did a bit whilst at uni but forgot about it for the most part but quickly finished it last night. I then got the crafty bug after I went to Hobby craft (Wolverhampton).
I bought the kit for the Doll which was really easy to make but I had to learn Blanket stitch and I used this video on my phone to learn how to do it:
here is the finished product:
